CGW 52281 5" Dia 320-Grit Extreme Purple Ceramic Hook & Loop Sanding Disc

CGW 52281 5 inch diameter sanding disc with 320-grit ceramic abrasive is designed for high-material removal on metal and hard surfaces. The disc uses a hook-and-loop (H&L) backing for quick changes on compatible facings and features a ceramic grain construction known for sharp, long-wlasting cutting action. A C-weight latex paper backing and open-coat design support consistent grit exposure and performance under demanding sanding conditions. The stearate-coated surface helps resist loading in dusty or confined-work environments, contributing to a cleaner sanding experience and reduced downtime due to clogging.

This 5" diameter disc is sized to fit standard holddowns and automatic sanding machines that accept 5" discs with hook-and-loop interfaces. The 320 grit provides a balance between aggressive material removal and a relatively fine finish, making it suitable for deburring, rust removal, and preliminary surface preparation on harder materials where ceramic grains excel. The combination of ceramic grain and open-coat construction helps maintain cutting efficiency while reducing gumming on softer coatings, which can be particularly beneficial when working with metals that tend to load conventional abrasives.

Each package contains disc units sized for individual use, with packaging reflecting a box quantity of 100 discs for inventory management and cost-efficiency in production environments. When selecting replacement discs, verify compatibility with your sanding equipment’s 5-inch H&L disc holder and ensure proper seating to prevent air gaps during operation. Regular inspection for wear and heating is advised to maintain consistent performance and to avoid substrate damage during extended use.
