OVERVIEW

Industrial Grade Sanding with 3M Cubitron Technology

The 3M Cubitron Paper Disc 6" 80 Grit Stikit represents the pinnacle of abrasive innovation for industrial environments. Designed for professionals who demand efficiency and longevity, this disc utilizes 3M’s proprietary Precision-Shaped Grain technology. Unlike traditional abrasives that plow through material, Cubitron grains slice through metal and paint with razor-like efficiency. This results in a significantly cooler cut, reducing the risk of heat-related warping or discoloration on sensitive substrates.

This specific disc features an 80 grit rating, making it an excellent choice for intermediate steps in the finishing process, such as shaping body filler, removing paint, or blending out coarse scratches from previous steps. The 6-inch diameter is the industry standard for Dual Action (DA) sanders, ensuring broad compatibility with your existing pneumatic or electric tools.

The Stikit™ attachment system is a key advantage for high-volume shops. It uses a pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) coating on the back of the disc, allowing operators to press the disc onto a backup pad instantly. There are no mechanical fasteners to interfere with the work surface, and the disc holds securely during use but peels off cleanly when it's time for a change. This system maximizes shop productivity by minimizing downtime during abrasive changeovers.

Key Applications

  • Stock removal and shaping of body fillers and putties.
  • Paint stripping and feather-edging around repair areas.
  • General purpose metal sanding and surface preparation.
  • Woodworking and composite material finishing.

FAQ

Stikit is 3M's brand of pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) backing. It allows the disc to stick directly to a compatible backup pad like a sticker, providing a secure hold without hook-and-loop fasteners.

80 grit is a medium-coarse abrasive used for shaping body filler, removing paint, stripping rust, and leveling surfaces before moving to finer grits.

Yes, you need a 6-inch Stikit (PSA) backup pad. It will not stick to a Hookit (hook-and-loop) pad unless you use a conversion face.

Yes, 3M Cubitron discs are effective on aluminum, steel, and other metals, as well as fiberglass and wood.

Cubitron grain is precision-shaped into triangles that slice through metal rather than plowing. This results in a faster cut, cooler operating temperature, and longer disc life.

Typically, standard paper Stikit discs are designed for dry sanding operations. Check the specific series (e.g., 732U) for dry vs. wet ratings, but most are used dry.

This fits any 6-inch Dual Action (DA) sander or orbital sander equipped with a smooth-faced Stikit backup pad.
