Introducing the 3M Emery Cloth, a durable and effective tool designed specifically for the challenges of sanding metal parts in auto repair. Unlike common sandpaper that can easily fall apart during aggressive sanding, our Emery Cloth features a J-weight cloth backing that is lightweight yet significantly more durable than paper. This makes it ideal for both hand and machine sanding of metal surfaces. The Emery abrasive used in our cloth combines metal oxide minerals, including non-fibrous aluminum oxide, to create a tough abrasive surface that removes stock quickly while leaving a fine finish. With a complete range of grits available, you can choose the perfect option for your specific needs, from fine to coarse.
Recommended Applications- Stripping paint to metal
- Deburring
- Rust removal
- Preparing metal surfaces for treatments and repair
An emery cloth is specially designed for sanding metal surfaces, offering several advantages over traditional sandpaper. Unlike sandpaper, our Emery Cloth features a durable cloth backing that won't come apart or shred during aggressive sanding, reducing the risk of small fragments being left on the prepared surface. Traditional self-fracturing abrasives used in sandpaper can wear down quickly, whereas our emery abrasive, which includes non-fibrous metal oxide minerals, is extra tough and less prone to breaking off and interfering with subsequent steps in metal paint preparation. Additionally, the entire cloth is resin cured for added durability and resistance to heat, making it particularly beneficial during machine sanding.
The 3M Emery Cloth is available in assorted grits and is an essential tool during the Prepare stage of the 3M Body Repair System.
