-
Can these pads be used for both wet and dry sanding?
Yes, they can be used for both wet and dry sanding applications.
-
What types of surfaces can I use these square pads on?
These square pads are designed to work on multiple surfaces such as metals, plastics, composites, paints, and wood.
To create the 3M™ Square Pad 341D, we use a combination of aluminum oxide mineral, X-weight cloth backing, and resin. Each component plays a crucial role in the abrasive's performance and longevity. The X-weight cloth backing is heavy, durable, and does not deflect during use. This allows the pad to aggressively tackle channels, fillet welds, and corners. Aluminum oxide mineral delivers a soft scratch pattern that is often desirable for finishing and polishing. It is a popular choice among industrial professionals due to its fast cut and long life. Additionally, it is suitable for use on many metals, including softer metals and carbon steel. The mineral is adhered to the backing in a closed coat construction, meaning it covers 100% of the backing. This greater grain density equates to finer finishes.
Tips for Optimal UseThe 3M™ Square Pad 341D is made by folding strips of abrasive material over a metal eyelet to form a square abrasive pad. As the pad rotates, the corners provide fast cutting action, wearing down to expose fresh abrasive mineral. Square pads run smoothly and offer great control and access for corner weld grinding, finishing, and cleaning. They are slightly more aggressive than cross pads due to their square design, making them a good choice for tougher grinding and blending applications. The 341D square pads can be used with portable die grinders to facilitate easier and closer access to the workpiece. The metal eyelet attaches to a mandrel, either long or short, enabling the operator to tighten or extend the abrasive's proximity to the part. The pad is available in a range of grades and sizes, providing added versatility to secure a fine or coarse scratch depending on the project needs.
Conquer CornersSquare pads are useful across industries and markets, commonly applied in metalworking and maintenance repair operations. Their square shape and cushioned pad make them a good abrasive for grinding, blending, and finishing flat surfaces, channels, and corners. They tackle these unique workpiece contours by cleanly abrading the surface with their square tips. The 3M™ Square Pad 341D is particularly useful when faced with tight corners.
