The Standard Abrasives Silicon Carbide Slotted Cloth Disc compresses when entering a hole or cylinder to provide full contact with inside diameters. Typically used in push applications, it is useful for light deburring, blending, cleaning, polishing, and chamfering applications. It features a threaded eyelet arbor hole for mandrel attachment.Full Contact with Internal Diameters
When you need a coated abrasive product with a lighter touch than a cross pad, our Standard Abrasives™ Silicon Carbide Slotted Cloth Disc is a good option and provides full coverage. While cross pads are very effective for more aggressive application in coarse grits, the slotted disc works well for less aggressive follow-up steps. The slotted construction makes the disc flexible so that the operator can push it into a hole or tube and achieve full contact with internal diameters. For push-pull applications, we recommend our Standard Abrasives™ Overlap Disc.
Super Sharp Silicon Carbide Leaves a Fine Finish
Silicon Carbide is a very sharp mineral most commonly used for low-pressure applications such as paint prep and the final stages of whitewood sanding. It is also an excellent choice for stainless steel applications. While it may have a shorter life than aluminum oxide, it produces a finer finish and should be used when a fine scratch pattern is desired.
Running a Slotted Cloth Disc
For the convenience of tool-free disc changes, our slotted discs have either a threaded eyelet arbor hole that screws onto a mandrel and is secured by hand with an attachment bolt, or a built-in 8-32 threaded shaft. A shorter mandrel allows for a steadier application, while a mandrel with extended reach allows access deeper into pipe interiors. Compatible threaded Standard Abrasives™ Mandrels are available separately with thread sizes of 8-32, 3-48, and 14-20. An extended version is available with 8-32 threads.
