Product Description: 3M™ Disc Pad Face Plate Assembly
The 3M™ Disc Pad Face Plate Assembly is a versatile tool that allows for easy changing of the face plate without removing the disc pad hub. This feature enables operators to use a single tool for multiple applications, from heavy grinding to finishing a workpiece.
Some face plates come with ribbing on the bottom face, which provides additional force for optimal fracturing of the abrasive mineral. Ribbed face plates increase the grinding pressure of the abrasive with the same amount of operator effort by reducing the area of contact or pressure per square foot (PSI). This feature extends disc life when dulling is a problem.
It is important to choose a plate with the level of firmness needed for the application. A lighter density face plate is suitable for lighter weight grinding applications, while a harder density face plate is ideal for more heavyweight grinding applications. Using the correct face plate for the application ensures that the abrasive mineral will fracture as it should, maximizing the life of the abrasive.
The plate comes in one of four different colors that indicate the density, making it easy to identify the correct plate in the workroom. The colors are as follows: red = extra hard (for heavy grinding with the coarsest grades), black = hard (for heavy metal removal, large welds, etc.), gray = medium (for general purpose grinding and finishing), and white = soft (for finishing operations on flat or contoured surfaces).
- Red = Extra Hard (for heavy grinding with the coarsest grades)
- Black = Hard (for heavy metal removal, large welds, etc.)
- Gray = Medium (for general purpose grinding and finishing)
- White = Soft (for finishing operations on flat or contoured surfaces)
