3M Tapered Bristle Disc P80
The 3M 18736 is a 3-inch tapered bristle disc for surface conditioning on straight grinders, drill presses and pencil grinders. Ceramic bristles rated P80 remove light rust, paint and coatings from aluminium, brass, bronze, cast iron, stainless steel and steel. A quick-change TR connector lets operators swap discs without tools. The yellow colour identifies the grit at a glance.
Who should choose this disc
Metalworkers needing aggressive yet controlled material removal on contoured or flat surfaces will benefit from the tapered profile. Shops focused on fine finishing or polishing should look at finer-grit abrasives instead. Buyers requiring non-ceramic bristle material or a different attachment system must select another product.

Questions about this item
How does the P80 grit perform on stainless steel in a real workshop?
The P80 ceramic bristles remove surface oxidation and light weld discoloration on stainless steel without gouging, leaving a consistent satin finish ready for finer steps.
What does the Quick Change TR system actually lock onto?
The TR quick-change connector snaps into compatible straight grinders, drill presses or pencil grinders and holds the 3-inch disc securely under load.
Will the 3-inch cup brush clear the guard on my angle grinder?
This disc is made for straight grinders, drill presses and pencil grinders; it does not mount on standard angle-grinder arbors or guards.
