PRODUCT FAQ
-
What grit level is this Hookit Gold disc, and what would I use it for?
This is a 320-grit disc, which is considered fine grit. It's perfect for finishing work, sanding between coats, and light surface prep on wood, metal, and composite materials. It leaves a smooth surface ready for painting or staining.
-
Can I use this disc on my standard orbital sander?
Great question! This disc is designed specifically for Hookit systems, which use 3M's hook-and-loop attachment technology. You'll need a Hookit-compatible backing pad on your sander for these discs to work properly.
-
How many discs do I get if I order one case?
One case contains 4 cartons, and each carton holds 50 discs, giving you a total of 200 discs per case. That's a good supply for ongoing projects.
-
What makes 3M Hookit Gold different from other abrasive discs?
Hookit Gold discs feature 3M's advanced abrasive technology that provides faster cutting, longer life, and a better finish compared to standard abrasives. The gold mineral formulation is specially designed for consistent, reliable performance.
-
Does this disc have a center hole, or is it solid?
This particular model has no hole in the center, so it's a solid disc. This design is ideal for sanders that don't require center hole registration or for applications where full disc contact is beneficial.
