CGW 51235 5" Dia 180-Grit Green Premium Aluminum Oxide Hook & Loop DOR Film Sanding Disc is designed for versatile sanding tasks on metal and other hard surfaces. The 5-inch diameter provides broad contact for efficient material removal, while the 180 grit level offers a balance between aggressive initial stock removal and a smoother finish. The product uses a green premium aluminum oxide abrasive mounted on a durable hook-and-loop (H&L) backing, paired with a film adhesive backing. This setup supports consistent performance in both dry and wet sanding scenarios, helping to minimize loading and extend disc life compared with traditional paper discs.
Key construction features include a Film backing described as strong yet pliable, with a .003 inch Mylar-like film that contributes to stable, uniform cuts and improved longevity. The combination of aluminum oxide abrasive and film backing is stated to deliver up to four times the life of comparable paper discs under similar usage conditions, which can translate to fewer disc changes and lower downtime in maintenance tasks.
These discs are sized for standard 5" sanding applications and are supplied in a packaging size of per-disc with box quantities indicating 100 discs per box. The hook-and-loop design supports quick attachment and easy disc changes, which is beneficial for continuous sanding workflows on metal, composites, or other hard surfaces where a consistent finish is needed. When selecting discs, consider the film backing’s performance in dry and wet conditions and choose the 180-grit for intermediate smoothing or initial shaping depending on the material and desired final surface texture.
