-
How does the A35 grit level of this disc compare to other options available in the market?
The A35 grit designation indicates a medium-coarse abrasive level, offering effective material removal while still providing a smooth finish compared to coarser grit levels.
-
Can you provide more information about the Die 400DN design feature mentioned in the product description?
The Die 400DN designation refers to a specific manufacturing process used by 3M that helps ensure consistent performance and durability of each disc in this product line.
3M Trizact PSA Film Disc 268XA is a high-quality abrasive disc that is designed for a variety of applications. It features a polyester backing, which makes it water-resistant and suitable for both wet and dry sanding. This disc is commonly used for damp sanding on different substrates, including acrylic products, solid surface materials, and glass. By using a lubricant like water, the disc can run cool and effectively wash away debris that could potentially damage the substrate. The 3M Trizact PSA Film Disc 268XA is typically used in the middle of a sanding sequence to bring the workpiece closer to the desired matte, semi-gloss, or high gloss finish. Although it can be used damp, the disc requires minimal water for optimal results.
One of the key features of the 3M Trizact PSA Film Disc 268XA is its use of 3M microreplication technology. This technology creates a surface with patterned, microscopic, three-dimensional structures that resemble pyramids. Unlike conventionally coated abrasives that have irregularly spaced mineral particles, Trizact abrasives focus on uniformity. As the pyramids wear down, fresh and sharp mineral particles are exposed, ensuring a consistent cut and a predictable, fine finish. This results in fewer scraps and discards due to inconsistent results. The ongoing sharp cutting action of the disc also reduces the need for other abrasives in the sanding sequence, streamlining the process and increasing productivity.
PSA AttachmentThe 3M Trizact PSA Film Disc 268XA features a pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) on the back, which makes it easy to attach the disc to a tool. Simply press the disc onto a disc pad, and it will securely adhere. When it's time to remove the disc, it can be peeled off the disc pad effortlessly, leaving a clean surface for the next disc. For added convenience, the disc is available in rolls, allowing for quick and easy tearing off of individual discs without the need to remove individual disc liners. The PSA discs are used in conjunction with a PSA or 3M Stikit backup pad (sold separately) that is attached to a random orbital sander.
Great VersatilityThe 3M Trizact PSA Film Disc 268XA is available in a range of grades, from A5 to A35. This allows operators to choose the right grade for their specific application. The lower the A-grade, the finer the grade, so operators can select a smaller grade like A5 for a fine finish, or a larger grade like A35 for a coarser finish. To make it easier to identify the grade, the discs are color-coded. This reduces the risk of mistakenly selecting the wrong grade in a sanding sequence.
Regardless of the grade selected, operators can rely on the exceptional performance of the 3M Trizact PSA Film Disc 268XA. It is a go-to abrasive that offers fast cutting action and consistent finishes, ensuring high-quality results for every part.
