3M Cubitron II Fibre Disc 987C offers significant gains in productivity on medium to heavy-duty operations thanks to the exceptionally high-performing 3M Precision-Shaped Grain combined with a stiff fiber backing. This disc achieves a higher cut-rate, greater durability, and longer life than other fiber discs all with less grinding pressure.
- 3M Precision-Shaped Grain maintains super-sharp points that cut exceptionally fast with less pressure
- Mineral runs cooler and disc life is significantly longer, completing more parts per disc and requiring fewer disc changes
- Reduces changeouts and downtime in robotic and pressure-assisted applications
- Stiff fiber backing and a strong resin bond provide durability and tear-resistance for heavyweight applications such as high-pressure weld grinding or beveling
- Grinding aid incorporated on the disc minimizes grinding temperatures for heat-sensitive alloys

PRODUCT FAQ
-
What is the 3M™ Cubitron™ II Fibre Disc 987C made of?
The disc is made up of ceramic abrasive grain which delivers faster cut rates and an extended lifespan, extending productivity.
-
Can I use this disc on my angle grinder?
Yes, you can use it on your angle grinder because the Disc has a 7/8 in hole to screw onto most popular angle grinders.
-
What does "36+" mean in the product description?
"36+" Indicates that the mineral used in making these discs are within specified grade range. In other words, they can be considered finer than diamond coated files or grinding compound when used correctly for processing harder metals such as iron and steel again metal objects subjected to heat treatment processes.
-
Is there any difference between each fiber disk or do all Fibre disks do the same thing?
The different types of abrasives embedded have been engineered based on their intended application. For instance, some will remove paint quickly while others are designed to handle tasks involving more substantial materials like metal.
Ideal for Robotic Weld Grinding
In medium and high-pressure applications like robotic weld grinding, it's important to choose a high-performance abrasive that cuts fast and lasts long. The self-fracturing mineral in 3M™ Cubitron™ II Fibre Disc 987C will keep your robot grinding welds long after other abrasives call it quits, reducing downtime and maximizing efficiency.
Recommended Applications

About 3M Precision-Shaped Grain
To create 3M Precision-Shaped Grain, engineers start with 3M™ Ceramic Abrasive Grain and use proprietary technology to form the grains into triangular structures and electrostatically orient them on the backing to form sharp peaks that maximize cutting potential. These peaks slice cleanly through metal, rather than gouging or plowing as traditional abrasive grains do; and continuously self-sharpen as the points break off. This generates a super-fast cut and lessens heat build-up due to friction, reducing heat-related stress cracks and discoloration. The mineral also wears evenly, and because the abrasive stays cooler and sharper, 3M™ Cubitron™ II abrasives last significantly longer than their conventional ceramic counterparts, ensuring extended high performance in production applications.
