PRODUCT FAQ
-
Is the 3M™ Cubitron™ 3 Flap Disc 1169F compatible with a standard angle grinder?
Yes, it is! The disc has a 5/8 in-11 threaded hub, which fits most standard 4-1/2 inch angle grinders. It’s designed for easy and quick attachment—no extra tools needed!
-
What materials can I use the Cubitron™ 3 Flap Disc on?
Great question! This flap disc works really well on metals like carbon steel, stainless steel, and more. It's perfect for tasks like grinding, blending, and finishing.
-
How long does the Cubitron™ 3 Flap Disc last compared to regular flap discs?
You’ll love this—the precision-shaped grain in our Cubitron™ 3 technology helps these discs cut faster and last significantly longer than conventional ceramic or aluminum oxide flap discs. That means you get more work done with fewer disc changes!
The 3M™ Cubitron™ 3 Flap Disc 1169F is engineered to deliver exceptional performance and longevity, making it a top choice for professionals seeking a versatile and reliable abrasive disc. This premium flap disc combines the hallmark benefits of flap discs—such as excellent conformability and user-friendly operation—with advanced features that minimize the risk of gouging, even during demanding applications.
At the heart of the 1169F is 3M’s innovative Precision-Shaped Grain technology, now enhanced with a unique curved sides design. This proprietary grain is designed to continually fracture into sharp, self-renewing points, allowing the disc to slice cleanly through metal rather than simply plowing through it. This results in a consistently high cut-rate and an extended disc life, setting it apart from traditional abrasives.
Constructed with a robust polyester backing, the 3M™ Cubitron™ 3 Flap Disc 1169F is particularly well-suited for use on carbon steel. It demonstrates remarkable durability and efficiency in medium to high-pressure applications, such as beveling, weld grinding, deburring, and working on edges and contours. In fact, it removes up to 49% more material compared to the 3M™ Cubitron™ II Flap Disc 969F 40+ grade, and up to 66% more than the 3M™ Flap Disc 769F 40+ grade, making it a superior choice for productivity and performance.
Beyond its cutting power, the 1169F leaves a refined finish, making it ideal for blending and surface preparation tasks. Its ability to deliver a finish that is typically one grade finer than a fiber disc of the same grade means that, in many cases, you can grind and finish in a single step—eliminating the need for frequent abrasive changes and saving valuable time on the job.
Key Applications- Weld grinding
- Light grinding
- Beveling
- Deburring
- Blending
- Finishing
- Surface preparation
- Scale removal
- Weld spatter removal
- Working on edges and contours
For many projects, the 3M™ Cubitron™ 3 Flap Disc 1169F allows you to both grind and finish in a single step, thanks to its ability to produce a finer finish than a fiber disc of the same grade. While fiber discs may offer a faster initial cut, the 1169F’s efficiency in combining steps and reducing disc change-outs can significantly enhance workflow and productivity.
