PRODUCT FAQ
-
What grit level is the 3M Hookit Gold Abrasive Disc 09231, and what surfaces is it best for?
The 09231 comes in 80D grit, which is a medium-coarse abrasive. This grit is excellent for initial material removal, sanding bare wood, and preparing surfaces for finer finishing work.
-
Does this disc require a hole for attachment, and how many discs do I get?
Great question! The 09231 is a no-hole design, so it works perfectly with hookless sanders. You'll receive 50 discs per carton, and we sell them in cases of 4 cartons, giving you 200 discs total.
-
What size is the disc, and will it fit my sander?
This is a 5-inch disc (125 mm), which is one of the most common sizes for orbital sanders and other power tools. Before purchasing, just confirm your equipment accepts 5-inch discs to ensure proper fit.
