PRODUCT FAQ
-
What materials can I use the 3M™ Cubitron™ 3 Flap Disc 1169F on?
You can use this flap disc on a variety of metals, including carbon steel and stainless steel. It's great for grinding, blending, and finishing tasks!
-
What makes Cubitron™ 3 different from regular flap discs?
The Cubitron™ 3 uses precision-shaped ceramic grain technology that cuts cooler and faster than conventional abrasives. That means you get longer life and higher productivity—less time spent changing discs!
-
Is the T27-flat shape good for flat surfaces?
Yes! The T27-flat design is ideal for working on flat surfaces or when a smooth finish is important. It lets you keep more abrasive in contact with your workpiece.
-
Does it fit standard angle grinders?
Absolutely! This particular model has a built-in quick change hub (5/8-11), so it fits most standard angle grinders right out of the box—no extra tools needed!
Experience the next generation of abrasive technology with the 3M™ Cubitron™ 3 Flap Disc 1169F. This high-performance flap disc is engineered for exceptional durability and versatility, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of metalworking applications. Designed to deliver all the benefits you expect from a premium flap disc, it offers outstanding conformability and user-friendly operation, while minimizing the risk of gouging your workpiece.
At the heart of the 3M™ Cubitron™ 3 Flap Disc 1169F is the innovative 3M Precision-Shaped Grain, now re-engineered with curved sides for even greater efficiency. This advanced abrasive technology allows the disc to continually fracture into sharp, fresh cutting points, ensuring a consistently high cut-rate throughout the life of the disc. Unlike conventional abrasives that tend to plow through metal, the precision-shaped grain slices cleanly, resulting in faster material removal and a superior finish.
Built on a robust polyester backing, the 1169F flap disc is specifically designed for use on carbon steel and excels in medium to high-pressure applications. Whether you are beveling, grinding welds, deburring, or working on edges and contours, this disc stands up to demanding tasks. 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 top performer in its class.
The finish left by the 3M™ Cubitron™ 3 Flap Disc 1169F is smooth and refined, making it an excellent choice for blending and surface preparation tasks. Its ability to maintain a high cut-rate and long life means fewer disc changes and greater productivity 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
In many situations, the 3M™ Cubitron™ 3 Flap Disc 1169F allows you to both grind and finish in a single step, eliminating the need to switch abrasives. Under typical conditions, this flap disc produces a finish that is one grade finer than a fiber disc of the same grade. While fiber discs may offer a faster initial cut, the 1169F flap disc can streamline your workflow by reducing the number of steps and disc changes required, ultimately saving you valuable time and effort.
