3M Stikit Paper Disc 426U is a general purpose abrasive sanding disc constructed on a light, A-weight paper backing and features an anti-load coating to help prevent loading of the disc. The silicon carbide abrasive and light backing make this paper an ideal product for sanding applications like paint prep, white wood sanding, sealer sanding and solid surface finishing.The Stikit Advantage
Our 3M Stikit Paper Disc 426U is designed to handle a wide range of sanding and finishing needs. These high-quality, coated abrasive products come ready to use with a pressure sensitive adhesive coating on the backside so they conveniently press on to the backup pad and remove cleanly, leaving an uncontaminated surface for the next disc. The Stikit disc should be used in conjunction with our 3M Stikit backup pad (also called a disc pad and sold separately) that is attached to a disc sander, random orbital sander or stationary disc sander.
Silicon Carbide Abrasive
This paper disc uses silicon carbide mineral, which is a popular choice among industrial professionals because of its cut-rate and smooth finish. This synthetic mineral is very hard and fractures easily, resulting in freshly exposed sharp edges that cut fast and produce a smooth finish. Silicon carbide products are commonly used for low-pressure applications such as sanding and finishing on wood, lacquer, paint and metal. While it wears faster than aluminum oxide, it produces a superior finish.
Heat Resistant Resin Bonding
This disc also uses a resin bonding which is specially designed to resist thermal deterioration, which can occur during sanding. This bond is very tough and excellent for precision work on hard and soft wood.
