The 3M™ Trizact™ Hookit™ Film Disc 568XA uses 3M microreplication technology and cerium oxide particles formed into tiny pyramids of abrasive mineral and then coated on a film backing. As these pyramids wear, fresh, sharp mineral is continually exposed to help produce a consistent cut and a consistent, fine finish when used either wet or dry.
The he 3M™ Trizact™ Hookit™ Film Disc 568XA uses cerium oxide abrasive mineral. Cerium oxide is an oxide of the rare earth metal, cerium. The average grain size of the particle is measured in nanometers in raw form, thus making it one of the most effective abrasives for final polishing steps on solid surfaces. It is heat-resistant and effective as a polishing agent for glass mirrors, plate glass, crystal, television tubes, ophthalmic lenses, precision optics, precious, and semi-precious stone. The 3M™ Trizact™ Hookit™ Film Disc 568XA is suitable for use on a variety of solid surfaces, topcoats, and accommodates most finish and process requirements. This disc is manufactured with the 3M™ Hookit™ Attachment System for quick mounting and removal, which holds the disc securely in place during use. Hookit™ Siscs conveniently and firmly attach to a hook-and-loop backup disc pad (sold separately) on rotary or random orbital tools, can be removed cleanly and easily, and can be re-used again and again for the life of the disc.
