The CGW 51242 5" diameter sanding disc is designed for versatile finishing tasks in facility maintenance. This 60-grit aluminum oxide disc uses a hook-and-loop attachment and a durable film backing, delivering a consistent, fast-cutting finish with improved durability compared to traditional paper discs. The .003 inch Mylar film backing provides pliability and strength, supporting both dry and wet sanding applications and enabling longer disc life in demanding workloads.
Key construction highlights include the film-backed composition that typically offers extended service life and stable grit performance, contributing to a uniform surface texture across multiple sanding passes. The hook-and-loop (H&L) format ensures quick disc changes and secure adhesion to compatible sanding machines, reducing downtime during maintenance and repair cycles. This disc is intended for use with standard 5" hook-and-loop sanding pads and is packaged in quantities suitable for shop-wide stocking.
Practical considerations for use include selecting grit and backing appropriate to the material being processed and the desired finish. With a 60 grit aluminum oxide grain, this disc is well-suited for initial material removal and surface shaping on metal or coated surfaces, followed by finer grits for finishing. Maintain clean backing surface and replace discs when backing or abrasive wear becomes evident to preserve consistent performance.
