PRODUCT FAQ
-
What grit level is the 3M™ Paper Roll 216U, and what type of sanding is it best for?
The 216U comes in P220 grade, which is a fine grit that works great for finish sanding, smoothing between coats, and final surface preparation before staining or painting.
-
How wide and long is each roll, and how many rolls come in a case?
Each roll measures 6 inches wide by 25 yards long, and you get 1 roll per case, making it perfect for smaller projects or testing before ordering in bulk.
-
What does "A weight" mean for this sandpaper product?
A weight refers to the backing material thickness—it's a lighter, more flexible backing that's ideal for hand sanding and conforms nicely to curved or detailed surfaces.
-
Is this sandpaper suitable for both wood and metal applications?
Yes, the 216U is versatile and works well on both wood and metal surfaces, making it a reliable choice for general purpose finishing work across different materials.
The 3M™ Paper Roll 216U is engineered to deliver versatile performance across a spectrum of collision repair sanding applications. This product is manufactured in a carefully selected range of medium to medium-fine grit grades, ensuring adaptability for diverse sanding requirements. The sheet rolls offer exceptional flexibility in their application, as they can be readily converted into individual sheets, circular discs, or configured for use with sanding blocks and files. The A-weight paper construction is specifically designed to provide superior conformability to curved and irregular surfaces, while simultaneously delivering the precise control necessary for both hand-operated and power sanding operations.
Sharp Abrasive for a Refined FinishLeveraging an open coat construction methodology combined with premium aluminum oxide mineral abrasive particles, the 3M™ Paper Roll 216U delivers a notably sharp cutting action. This design characteristic produces a more aggressive cutting performance when compared to equivalently-graded closed coat abrasive products, enabling more efficient material removal. The lightweight A-weight paper backing is complemented by an extensive selection of grit options ranging from medium-coarse to fine grades, positioning this product as an ideal solution for precision sanding applications such as putty and primer finishing. The 3M™ Paper Roll 216U demonstrates remarkable compatibility with the full spectrum of collision repair substrates, including clear coat finishes, fiberglass components, painted surfaces, primer layers, and plastic materials.
Resists Dust and Debris- Open coat construction positions abrasive grains with intentional spacing between them to facilitate efficient evacuation of sanding dust and debris
- Anti-loading coating technology prevents accumulation of sanding material on the cutting surface of the abrasive grains
- Continuous cutting capability is maintained even when processing materials prone to clogging conventional abrasives
- Enhanced productivity and reduced material waste result from these design features
The 3M™ Paper Roll 216U represents the application of advanced materials science to professional collision repair work. Engineered for exceptional durability and longevity, this product successfully tackles even the most demanding auto body sanding projects. The combination of premium aluminum oxide mineral abrasive and innovative anti-loading open coat construction exemplifies 3M's commitment to delivering superior solutions that enhance efficiency and performance for collision repair professionals.
