AL Surface Conditioning Disc

• Great disc for low to medium pressure applications and when loading resistance is desired
• Commonly used for cleaning, finishing, blending and deburring
• Open web construction responds to surface irregularities and contours, minimizing gouging
• Non-woven nylon fibers break down gradually to expose fresh mineral, resulting in consistent cutting action
• Aluminum oxide mineral cuts sharp but finishes fine
• Increased cut and life as compared to 3M™ SC Surface Conditioning Discs
• Roloc™ system enables swift and easy power tool attachment

The Scotch-Brite™ Roloc™ AL Surface Conditioning Disc cleans, finishes, blends and deburrs a variety of substrates, including ferrous and non-ferrous metals. It strikes the perfect balance between strength and softness. Use this disc to rid your workpiece of contaminants without severely altering part geometry.

Effectively Remove Burrs and Contaminants without Damaging Base Material
Scotch-Brite™ products can help make your tough jobs easier. The Scotch-Brite™ Roloc™ AL Surface Conditioning Disc, specifically, helps achieve burr-free, paintable finishes in fewer steps without changing the geometry of the work piece. It excels on soft substrates and applications where loading is the cause of the end of the abrasive life.

Aluminum Oxide Mineral Cuts Fast and Sharp
Aluminum oxide mineral is interspersed in the disc’s open web. Aluminum oxide is a popular choice among industrial professionals given its durability and sharp cut. Moreover, aluminum oxide is known for being friable, meaning it fragments under heat and pressure in order to self renew. Friability keeps the mineral cutting sharp. While all discs use aluminum oxide, we offer Scotch-Brite™ Roloc™ AL Surface Conditioning Disc in three grades: very fine (VFN), medium (MED) and coarse (CRS). In this way, operators can choose a grade that’s tailored to their substrate and desired finish.

Roloc™ System for Easy Power Tool Attachment
We included a 3M™ Roloc™ quick-change attachment on this disc so operators could easily swap between discs when there are multiple grades in a sequence. It also makes for quick power tool attachment, helping enhance productivity and throughput. To attach the disc, operators simply need to attach it to a Roloc™ backup pad (sold separately). Subsequently, the backup pad attaches to the power tool. The attachment options include TS, TSM and TR — some being metal and some being plastic. Operators should choose the right attachment for their tools.

The Scotch-Brite™ Advantage
Scotch-Brite™ products incorporate mineral into non-woven nylon fibers. Breakthrough fiber coating technology allows Scotch-Brite™ abrasive products to cut faster and produce a more consistent scratch.

The open-web material is load resistant and keeps the abrasive minerals cutting at high performance by limiting clogging of the nylon fibers. As the nylon fibers break down gradually during grinding, they expose fresh mineral, so you get that consistent sharp cut — part after part.
