3M 7000045172 | Cubitron II Roloc 3" Diameter 984F YF Weight 60+ Grit Precision Shaped Ceramic Durable Edge Disc

Description

The 3M 7000045172 Cubitron II Roloc 3" 984F durable edge disc is made for medium-to-high-pressure edge work requiring a fast cut rate and long life. This 60-grit Roloc disc, made with 3M Precision-Shaped Grain (PSG) on a 2-ply YF-weight polyester backing, removes material with exceptional efficiency on stainless steel, cobalt chrome, and nickel alloys. The Roloc TR quick-change attachment allows operators to quickly switch grades, maintaining throughput and reducing downtime. On heat-sensitive substrates, a grinding aid and an open coat construction assist in heat management and discoloration prevention. The laminated edge construction withstands aggressive edge grinding while preventing tear-out during beveling and deburring. When a compact, durable Roloc disc is needed for consistent, repeatable results, use the 3M Cubitron II 984F. This disc is suitable for 3" (76.2 mm) disc sanders and Roloc attachment systems. Buyers who value specifications will appreciate this product's measurable improvements in cut rate, disc life, and operator force.

Product Features and Benefits

Precision-Shaped Grain for faster cutting

3M Cubitron II Fibre Roloc Disc, PSG, forms sharp, self-sharpening peaks that slice through metal instead of plowing, producing higher cut rates with less operator pressure. This results in measurable productivity gains and longer disc life compared to conventional ceramic abrasives.

60-grit YF-weight polyester backing for edge durability

The 2-ply YF weight backing provides reinforced edge support for grinding and deburring without premature backing failure. It maintains stability under medium- to high-pressure applications common in metal fabrication.

Roloc TR quick-change attachment

The 3M Cubitron II 984F TR attachment enables rapid, tool-free disc changes to minimize downtime between operations and speed grade swaps on the line. The Roloc system also improves alignment and repeatability when used across multiple operators.

Grinding aid and open coat reduce heat

The 3M Cubitron II Roloc disc features an integrated grinding aid that lowers operating temperature on stainless and other heat-sensitive alloys, reducing discoloration and heat-related cracking risk. Open coat construction prevents loading and extends abrasive performance in sticky metals.

Compact 3" size for tight access work

The 3" diameter disc fits small weld toes, seam grinding, and recessed areas where larger discs cannot reach. Its durable edge construction preserves abrasive life in confined, high-pressure edge applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
