Quick-Change Sanding Discs for Metalwork
These 3M Quick-Change Sanding Discs use aluminum oxide abrasive on a polyester backing rated YF weight. The TR quick-change system lets operators swap discs in seconds on compatible die grinders or rotary tools. Packaged in a 50-count box, they suit workshops that need consistent stock removal on steel, iron or weld seams. The extra-coarse 24 grit targets aggressive material removal rather than finishing passes.
Heat-Resistant Design for Continuous Use
Closed-coat coverage and heat-resistant properties help the discs withstand friction at speeds up to 20,000 RPM. The polyester backing resists loading and tearing during prolonged grinding cycles, keeping cut rates steadier than open-coat alternatives. Operators should still follow tool speed limits and use appropriate guarding to manage heat buildup in the workpiece.
TR Quick-Change Mounting and 50-Pack Economy
The TR attachment locks onto matching back-up pads with a simple twist, reducing change-over time between grits or worn discs. A 50-disc pack supports high-volume production runs without frequent reordering. Buyers who need finer surface preparation or contour sanding on complex shapes should select higher-grit discs in the same 361F series.

Questions about this item
How do I attach the 3 in TR quick-change disc to my tool, and what step causes it to loosen?
Align the TR locking lugs with the holder slots, press firmly, then twist until the audible click; the step most people skip is the final quarter-turn that seats the lugs fully, so the disc can release under vibration.
When will the 24-grit aluminum-oxide surface need replacement?
Replace the disc once the black cutting face glazes over or the polyester YF backing frays at the edge; with closed-coat coverage the grit wears evenly, so loss of bite is the clear signal.
What is the first limit reached during extended sanding at full speed?
The 20,000 RPM ceiling is the hard limit; exceeding it risks disc disintegration, while heat resistance only delays thermal breakdown of the resin bond.
