The CGW 49990 is a 5-inch diameter sanding disc designed for high-performance surface preparation on metal and other substrates. This hook-and-loop (H&L) disc uses an open-coat construction with heat-treated aluminum oxide grain to deliver a fast-cutting action and extended life, suitable for routine material removal and finishing tasks where consistent scratch patterns are important. The gold weight paper backing is designed to be tear resistant, which helps resistance to tearing during rapid changes in pressure or contact with edges, potentially reducing disc snags and unscheduled changes during a job. The full phenolic bond system contributes to stability and uniform grain exposure across the disc, supporting predictable wear and finish quality across multiple uses.
Key construction features include a stearated backing to reduce loading and a full phenolic resin bond that maintains disc integrity under typical sanding temperatures and friction. The 150-grit grade positions this disc for moderate material removal and surface finishing applications, offering a balance between material aggression and surface detail. This disc is intended for use with 8-volt current, hook-and-loop compatibility, enabling quick attachment and easy disc changes on compatible sanding tools. The packaging indicates a box quantity of 100 discs per order, making it suitable for shops that require medium-to-high volume supply.
When selecting for a project, consider the need for fast cut versus final finish, and confirm that your tool uses a compatible hook-and-loop disc system with a 5-inch diameter. Maintenance-wise, inspect discs for torn backing or excessive loading, and replace promptly to maintain consistent surface results and avoid damage to the workpiece.
