The 3M™ Cubitron™ 3 Fibre Disc 1182C represents the next evolution of high-performance grinding, featuring re-engineered 3M Precision Shaped Grain that delivers exceptional cutting speed and extended disc life. Designed for grinding mild and carbon steels, this fibre disc enables increased productivity and lower overall grinding costs when compared to conventional fibre discs and depressed center grinding wheels.

Providing up to 60% more total material removal than the 3M™ Cubitron™ II Fibre Disc 982C (36+), the 1182C offers a fast cut rate with high stock removal across a wide range of application pressures. It is engineered to help reduce exposure to hand-arm vibration, improve throughput, and complete more parts per disc, making it well suited for medium- to high-pressure grinding applications.

The Cubitron™ 3 Fibre Disc 1182C is also designed to support both manual and automated grinding processes. Whether used with angle grinders or integrated into robotic weld grinding systems, this disc helps improve uptime, consistency, and efficiency—key factors in optimizing automated abrasive operations.
