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 mild and stainless steel, as well as other tough alloys. It’s designed to deliver fast cutting action and long life for grinding, blending, deburring, and finishing tasks!
-
What does "80+" mean on the Cubitron™ 3 Flap Disc?
The "80+" refers to the abrasive grade—it’s similar to an 80 grit but with enhanced performance thanks to our precision-shaped ceramic grain. That means you’ll get a consistent finish and longer-lasting discs.
-
How does the quick change feature work?
Great question! The T27-Flat Quick Change design features a convenient spin-on/spin-off hub with a standard 5/8"-11 thread. This makes swapping out discs super easy—just twist it on or off by hand without any extra tools!
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, self-renewing points that slice cleanly through metal, rather than plowing through the substrate like conventional abrasives. The result is a disc that maintains a consistently high cut-rate and delivers a longer service life.
Constructed with a robust polyester backing, the 1169F flap disc is specifically designed for use on carbon steel and excels in medium to high-pressure applications. In fact, it removes up to 49% more total 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. This makes it a powerful solution for demanding tasks such as beveling, weld grinding, deburring, and working on edges and contours.
Beyond its impressive cutting power, the 3M™ Cubitron™ 3 Flap Disc 1169F leaves a refined finish, making it an excellent choice for blending and surface preparation. Its ability to deliver a finish that is typically one grade finer than a fiber disc of the same grade means you can often grind and finish in a single step, reducing the need for abrasive change-outs and saving valuable time in your workflow.
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 enables you to both grind and finish in a single operation, eliminating the need to switch abrasives. While fiber discs may offer a faster initial cut, the 1169F flap disc’s ability to produce a finer finish and reduce process steps can significantly enhance productivity and efficiency in your metalworking projects.
