Nylon Mesh Cushioned Sanding Pads
The mesh in these sanding pads flexes to compensate for uneven pressure as you sand, producing a consistent finish. It's embedded with aluminum oxide, the most common abrasive for general purpose sanding, such as material removal and finishing on metals and wood. These pads can be cut to size for use with portable sanders.
Pads with a medium nylon mesh thickness are the standard option for general purpose sanding. Thin nylon mesh pads are more flexible than medium-thick pads. They’re good for sanding contoured areas, wrapping around tight corners and edges, and squeezing into confined spaces.
Heavy Duty—Aggressive deburring, blending, and rust removal.
Long Life—Fine grade is for deburring and cleaning. Very fine grade is for cleaning.
All Purpose—Light cleaning.
Clean/Scour—Removing light stains, corrosion, and oxidation.
Final Finish—Light cleaning, finishing, and polishing.
Clean—Scratch-free cleaning.

Aluminum oxide is the most common abrasive for general purpose sanding, such as material removal and finishing on metals and wood.
Nepheline syenite is an extremely mild abrasive material that’s good for gentle, yet thorough, cleaning on delicate surfaces such as plastic, glass, and porcelain. It is commonly used with liquid detergents.
Heavy Duty—Aggressive deburring, blending, and rust removal.
All Purpose—Light cleaning. 7447 Pro pads have a higher concentration of abrasive grain than standard 7447 pads, allowing them to cut faster and produce a more consistent finish. 7447 Durable Flex pads are thinner and more flexible than standard 7447 pads. Their thin profile wraps around tight corners and squeezes into confined spaces, making them good for sanding contoured surfaces. 8447 pads are designed for scuffing and blending surfaces prior to painting them. They’re slightly coarser than standard 7447 pads for a higher cut rate on your workpiece
Clean/Scour—Removing light stains, corrosion, and oxidation.
Clean—Scratch-free cleaning.

3M Scotch-Brite Nylon Mesh Cushioned Sanding
Pads for Aluminum, Soft Metals, and Nonmetals
The mesh in these sanding pads flexes to compensate for uneven pressure as you sand. It's embedded with silicon carbide, one of the sharpest abrasive materials. Silicon carbide cuts through soft metals and nonmetals like aluminum and rubber with ease, and it generates minimal heat to prevent material buildup. These pads can be cut to size for use with portable sanders.
7448 PRO pads have a higher concentration of abrasive grain than standard 7448 pads, allowing them to cut faster and produce a more consistent finish. 7448 Durable Flex pads are thinner and more flexible than standard 7448 pads. Their thin profile wraps around tight corners and squeezes into confined spaces, making them good for sanding contoured surfaces.
