The CGW 70033 5" X 7/8" Maroon Medium Non-Woven Surface Conditioning Disc is a versatile abrasive pad designed for surface conditioning on a variety of substrates. Its medium grade, maroon color indicates a finish around 180 grit, making it suitable for removing light oxidation, producing a smooth final surface, and preparing materials for subsequent coating or finishing steps. The disc is mounted with a PSA (pressure-sensitive adhesive) backing for easy attachment to compatible mandrels or backing pads, enabling quick changes during finishing operations. Built to deliver a balance between material removal and finish quality, this disc facilitates efficient processing without excessive loading on the abrasive surface.
Construction details indicate aluminum oxide abrasive grains embedded in a non-woven fiber matrix. This structure provides consistent aggressiveness while resisting loading, helping maintain a uniform finish over extended use. The 5" diameter and 7/8" center-hole sizing are standard for many workshop and production tools, and the PSA backing allows straightforward application to compatible tools, minimizing downtime. The disc is designed for use on ferrous and non-ferrous metals as well as certain composites and plastics, expanding its applicability from steel and stainless to aluminum, titanium, fiberglass, and more when surface conditioning is needed.
Typical use scenarios include deburring, blending welds, polishing out minor surface imperfections, and preparing surfaces for coatings or adhesives. When selecting a disc, consider the desired final finish and material type, as the medium grade targets a balance of material removal and surface finish. The product is sold in a box quantity of 10 per package, with individual discs sized 5" x 7/8" and rated as medium hardness to achieve a gradual finishing action without excessive abrasion. Regular inspection for wear and disc integrity is recommended to maintain consistent results.
