ST. PAUL, Minn., Nov. 5, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- 3M (NYSE:
MMM) is reinventing the sandpaper game with the
introduction of the 3M Xtract™ Cubitron™ II 710W Net Abrasive
Disc which provides twice the life and cut rate, while
removing up to 97% of dust particles as
it sands metal, wood and composite
surfaces.
The new product recently hit the market in the US and
Canada and is already the talk of
the internet as users eager to give it a test-run, have shared
demonstrations on platforms like YouTube with fantastic results.
The 3M Xtract™ Cubitron™ II 710W Net Abrasive Disc is currently
available in the United States and
Europe and will launch globally in
2022.
3M has been a key player in
abrasives since the company began on the shores of Lake
Superior. Almost 100 years later, the company continues to
lead the industry in innovation, bringing both performance and
improved safety to industrial operators everywhere.
"Work and well-being shouldn't require
compromise," said Debarati Sen, President, Abrasive Systems
Division at 3M. "We've put a
century of material science and application expertise
into reinventing the sandpaper game and making compromise a thing
of the past. No one should have to choose between effective work,
value, and enhanced safety. With 3M Xtract™, no one has
to."
3M is committed to making
sanding safe, clean, and helping users be more
productive.
All products under the 3M Xtract™
brand promise to "Cut the Dust," helping to give workers a better
work environment. This is made possible through a specially
designed mesh that extracts dust at every location on the
disc. While mesh abrasives aren't a new offering for the industry,
the unique benefit afforded by 3M
Xtract™ products is that the technology enhances, rather than
compromises, on cutting performance. How does it work? 3M Xtract™ Cubitron™ II discs contain
3M Precision-Shaped Grain technology
designed to continually fracture into sharp cutting edges. As a
result of this technology, 3M
Xtract™ mesh abrasives offer twice the abrasive life and cut rate
of leading competitors' net discs.
Since they cut faster and last longer, competitively priced 3M
Xtract™ sanding discs can deliver more value for production
managers and shop owners by reducing the need for resupply and time
spent changing pads discs. Safety managers can appreciate the
improved working conditions of a virtually dust-free environment,
and tool operators will appreciate their ability to get more
done in less time with less mess and
discomfort.
The new 3M Xtract™ brand offers a
suite of solutions including discs, tools, and
accessories.
