This particular disc has a 40+ grit rating, which makes it excellent for aggressive stock removal while still leaving a smoother finish than traditional coarse grits.
-
Does the quick change feature make swapping discs easier?
Absolutely! The quick change hub means you can easily swap out discs without extra tools—just twist it on or off your grinder with minimal downtime. Super convenient!
-
What size grinder will this fit?
This flap disc is sized at 7 inches in diameter with a 5/8-11 threaded hub, so it's compatible with most standard angle grinders that accept those dimensions. If you’re unsure about your grinder's specs, I'm happy to help check compatibility!
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 traditional abrasives. The result is a disc that maintains a consistently high cut-rate and delivers a long service life, even in demanding applications.
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 tasks. 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 superior performance makes it an excellent choice for professionals seeking efficiency and productivity in their grinding and finishing operations.
The 3M™ Cubitron™ 3 Flap Disc 1169F is not only effective for aggressive material removal but also leaves a refined finish, making it suitable for blending and surface preparation tasks. Its ability to conform to edges and contours ensures consistent results, even on complex geometries.
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.
