The 3M Clean-N-Strip XT Pro Disc is a high-performance stripping disc designed for professionals requiring efficient surface preparation and cleaning. Manufactured by 3M, this disc incorporates silicon carbide abrasive mineral embedded in an open nylon web, making it ideal for removing rust, paint, mill scale, coatings, and adhesives without damaging the underlying material.

Engineered with reengineered high-strength fibres, the disc offers exceptional conformability, allowing it to adapt to weld bead ripples and complex contours. This increased contact area enhances removal rates while preserving the geometry of the workpiece. The disc also features low vibration, reduced chunking, minimal sparking, and a high-speed rating, ensuring long life and reliable performance when used with angle grinders.

The abrasive mineral, silicon carbide, is known for its sharp cutting ability and fine finish, commonly applied in low-pressure paint preparation tasks. Combined with a resin bond and non-woven nylon fibres, the disc maintains consistent cutting action by gradually exposing fresh abrasive surfaces. Its thick, open web structure allows swarf to escape, minimizing loading and boosting productivity by reducing rework.

Applications include:

• Rust removal
• Paint and coating removal
• Mill scale elimination
• Adhesive stripping
• Surface preparation for welding and finishing
