Collection: 3M™ Abrasives

3M™ Cubitron™ 3 Fibre Discs

Breakthroughs in technology that are redefining the limits of cut rate and total stock removal, with a focus on prioritising productivity, safety, sustainability, and optimising automation.

A new era of abrasive performance is here.

Introducing 3M re-engineered Precision-Shaped Grain, boosting the speed and life of 3M™ Cubitron™ Performance Abrasives to new heights. This advancement prioritises operator safety, maximises sustainability, and amplifies time and labour efficiency.

Enhanced mineral orientation

• Latest 3M Precision-Shaped Grain
  Re-engineered precision-shaped ceramic triangular grain using a proprietary breakthrough in grain shape. This helps increase productivity and lower overall grinding costs.

• 3M Precision-Shaped Grain
  3M pioneered the first precision-shaped grain using 3M microreplication technology to form consistent sharp peaks that easily “slice” through metal—cutting cooler, faster, and lasting longer than conventional abrasive grain.
  
  
• Conventional ceramic abrasive
  Conventional ceramic abrasive grain tends to “plough” through metal, causing heat to build up in the workpiece and abrasive, resulting in a slower cut and shorter abrasive life compared to our latest precision-shaped grain.
  
  

3M™ Cubitron™ II - Grinding and Cutting Reinvented

3M™ Cubitron™ II abrasives are revolutionising the cutting and grinding process. They’re faster cutting and longer lasting than conventional abrasives.

With 3M Precision-Shaped Grain technology that transforms the process of grinding and cutting metal, Cubitron™ II abrasives:

• Cut faster
• Stay sharp longer
• Require less pressure
• Held reduce operator fatigue
• Increase productivity

Conventional ceramic abrasive grain is irregular in shape. Instead of a clean, machining action, the grain ‘ploughs’ through the metal, causing heat build-up, slower cutting and shorter life.

3M Precision-Shaped Grain in Cubitron™ II abrasives continuously fracture to form sharp points and edges – slicing cleaner and faster, staying cooler and lasting many times longer.

3 reasons why its better

1. Cuts faster
   helps improve productivity throughout
2. Lasts longer
   helps save money
3. Easier to use
   good for your workers, good for your business

3M™ Scotch-Brite™ - Prepared for perfection

The perfect finish starts with Scotch-Brite™

Performance. Durability. Reliability. Excellence. We don’t release a surface conditioning product until we can guarantee it delivers all four. Because at Scotch-Brite, our standards are as high as yours. After all, if you don’t compromise on quality, why should we?

Scotch-Brite Non-Woven Technology Explained

Our unique Non-Woven Web is the secret to superior performance. It binds together synthetic fibres and abrasive particles to create a conformable, three-dimensional material. Its open structure reduces the risk of warping or discolouring the part, resists loading, improves finish and prolongs the product’s life. What’s more, our Non-Woven Web is engineered to continually expose fresh abrasive to the work surface, for a consistent, smoother finish – without the risk of overworking the part and disturbing critical tolerances.

What makes Scotch-Brite the best you can buy?

• A tough, non-woven nylon web impregnated with resin and mineral throughout its structure.
• Spring-like action produces a smooth, burr-free surface.
• Uniform, consistent results with no undercutting.
• Suitable for deburring, finishing, cleaning and small weld removal applications.
• Easy to use, less rework, fewer rejects.
