Product Identity
The 3M 5621 Disc Retainer Nut is a silver‑coloured replacement nut designed for 5/8‑11 threaded sanders. It secures fiber discs on round backup pads and is sold in a pack of 10 for workshop or fleet maintenance.
Thread Compatibility
The nut fits only tools with a 5/8‑11 internal thread; it will not engage other thread pitches or diameters. No quick‑change mounting system is supported, so the disc must be threaded on manually each time.
Installation Notes
Installation is a simple hand‑tighten onto the sander spindle; no special tools are required. The most common issue is cross‑threading if the nut is started at an angle, which can damage both the nut and the tool spindle.

Questions about this item
Should I buy the pack of 10 retainer nuts or look for a different quantity?
The product is supplied as a pack of 10 nuts, model 5621, so you receive ten pieces in one package.
What does the 1/2 in overall length mean when the nut is fitted to my sander?
The nut measures 1/2 in overall length, so it adds that much axial height to the disc stack on your backup pad.
How does the 5/8 in.-11 threaded hole limit which backup pads I can use?
The nut accepts a 5/8 in.-11 thread, so it only fits backup pads or spindles with that exact thread size.
