The CGW 49958 5" Dia 100-Grit Gold Aluminum Oxide Hook & Loop DWT sanding disc is a high-performance abrasive designed for general-purpose metalworking and finish sanding tasks. The disc uses a stearated paper substrate with heat-treated aluminum oxide grain and a full phenolic bond, delivering a uniform scratch pattern and consistent performance across its life. Its open coat construction promotes rapid initial cutting and extended usability, making it suitable for more aggressive material removal while maintaining surface quality.
Key construction details include a strong tear-resistant backing that supports durability under repeated use, and a hook-and-loop (H&L) attachment for quick, secure disc changes on standard backing pads. The combination of aluminum oxide and the open coat design provides a balance between speed of cut and disc longevity, which is advantageous when working on ferrous and non-ferrous metals as well as some painted surfaces. The 5-inch diameter and 100-grit designation indicate a mid-range abrasive suitable for deburring, blending, and light to moderate material removal tasks, with the weight and bond selected to help sustain consistent performance during repeated passes.
For practical planning, this disc is packaged as individual pieces, with a box quantity of 100, facilitating stocking and workstation replacements. When selecting discs for a given job, ensure compatibility with your backing pad and that the grit level aligns with your finishing goals—100 grit offers a balance between material removal rate and surface finish. Regular inspection for wear and backing integrity is recommended to maintain consistent sanding results.
