A cleaning disc is very easy to obtain and easy to use. In the right hand, you can get an evenly smooth surface. Although it is powerful, it does not damage the material itself and leaves no marks on the surface.
Industrial cleaning discs are excellent choices for effective cleaning and versatile application. These discs offer several benefits that make the job easier and more efficient. Let's look at the benefits!
Efficient cleaning
Industrial cleaning discs are excellent for removing stubborn dirt. Thanks to their effective rotary motion, they clean surfaces quickly and efficiently, even in the hardest-to-reach areas.
Versatility
Cleaning discs come in a variety of sizes and materials, so they can be used for many different tasks. Whether on concrete, wood or metal surfaces, these discs are up to the challenge.
Durability
These types of discs are durable and resistant. This gives them a long lifespan, making them an excellent choice for the long term.
Cost-effectiveness
Thanks to the efficiency of the cleaning discs, the desired result can be achieved with less effort and in less time.
Types of cleaning discs
There are different types of cleaning discs. They come in a variety of sizes, and it does not matter what particle size you choose. The grain size of the disc should be chosen depending on the exact outcome you are ultimately aiming to achieve.
It is widely used in a variety of industries, including automotive and engineering. It can be used on metal, steel, wood, and glass, but also on other materials such as stone.

3M™ Silver cleaning discs
The Silver Cleaning Disc is characterised by its ability to work perfectly under heavy use, whether it's for edge breaking or removing welds, it does the job efficiently. It can be used on materials such as carbon steel and stainless steel. It provides fast and even material removal.
3M™ Cubitron™ II cleaning disc
The Cubitron cleaning disc utilises the power of ceramic discs, which provide you with an option that is fast, rigid and durable. It is particularly good for mild steel, stainless steel and aerospace alloys. The cutting speed of this type is outstanding.
The grains are designed to form a triangular shape. As they work, they cut the metal material rather than grind it, which also means that the grains sharpen themselves during use. As they are very fast to work with, there is no heat build-up and no fear of discolouration or chipping. Thanks to the recess in the centre, you can work at any angle, even removing welds from inside corners.

Flexible cleaning discs belong to a special group of cleaning discs. Their meshes are shaped to remove even the strongest contaminants as efficiently as possible. They can be used on a wide range of metallic materials at low temperatures. Thanks to its advantageous properties, a surface cleaned to the required quality can be achieved in a very short time.
3M™ High-Performance cleaning disc
High-performance designs are characterized by the fact that they contain ceramic particles. Ceramic particles are known to be very durable and long-lasting. They have the advantage of being highly efficient and can be used on any metallic material.
3M™ Green Corps flexible cleaning disc
