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 makes the 3M™ Cubitron™ II Fibre Disc 987C stand out from other abrasives?
The 3M™ Cubitron™ II Fibre Disc 987C features precision-shaped ceramic grain technology that continually fractures into sharp points, providing faster cutting and longer disc life compared to traditional abrasives.
-
Can this disc be used on stainless steel?
Yes, the 3M™ Cubitron™ II Fibre Disc 987C is designed for use on tough materials like stainless steel, offering high performance and consistent results.
-
How many discs come in each bag and case?
Each bag contains 25 discs of the size specified (7 in x 7/8 in), and there are a total of 100 discs per case for your convenience.
-
Is this product compatible with my current equipment setup?
The die design of our fibre disc ensures compatibility with various tools such as die grinders or other similar machinery commonly used in metalworking applications.
3M Cubitron II Fibre Disc 987C is a powerful tool for heavy-duty metalworking applications, thanks to its innovative 3M Precision-Shaped Grain technology. This technology utilizes an exceptionally high-performing ceramic mineral that is bonded to a strong fiber backing. The disc also incorporates a grinding aid, which helps to keep the workpiece cooler during grinding, protecting heat-sensitive alloys and reducing the need for re-work. With these features, the 3M Fibre 987C products offer increased productivity for heavy-duty grinding on all metals, including stainless steel.
Ideal for Robotic Weld Grinding
In medium and high-pressure applications, such as robotic weld grinding, it is crucial to choose an abrasive that can deliver high performance and durability. The self-fracturing mineral in 3M Cubitron II Fibre Disc 987C ensures that your robot can continue grinding welds long after other abrasives have worn out. This not only reduces downtime but also maximizes efficiency, allowing you to achieve more in less time.
Recommended Applications

About 3M Precision-Shaped Grain
3M Precision-Shaped Grain is a unique technology that starts with 3M Ceramic Abrasive Grain. Engineers then use proprietary techniques to shape the grains into triangular structures and electrostatically orient them on the backing. This results in sharp peaks that maximize cutting potential. Unlike traditional abrasive grains that tend to gouge or plow through metal, the peaks of 3M Precision-Shaped Grain slice cleanly, providing a super-fast cut. Additionally, the points of the grain continuously self-sharpen as they break off, reducing heat build-up and minimizing heat-related stress cracks and discoloration. The mineral wears evenly, and its cooler and sharper performance ensures that 3M Cubitron II abrasives last significantly longer than conventional ceramic counterparts, making them ideal for extended high-performance use in production applications.
