The 3M™ Hookit™ Microfinishing Film Sheet 268L is a precise micron-grade aluminum oxide abrasive product for use on a variety of substrates such as metal, plastic, and paint spot repair.
Disc pads have a hook attachment which drives 3M™ Hookit™ Discs with brushed Nylon loop backings
This product uses our 3M Hookit™ hook-and-loop attachment system which allows the operator to focus more on the task and less on tooling. 3M™ Hookit™ products, are manufactured with loop material that attaches to a backup pad (sold separately) where tiny hooks firmly engage the loops.
Attachment is quick, easy, and secure during use. Sanding, finishing, and surface conditioning products with the hook-and-loop attachment and removal system are efficient for working through multi-step finishing processes. Abrasive products with a Hookit attachments can be used again and again for the life of the abrasive, unlike pressure-sensitive adhesive attachments.
Collectively, these features make our 268L film sheet an efficient, economical alternative in many applications. Since the introduction of 3M Microfinishing Film decades ago, 3M has continued to provide consistent quality and the highest performance, while adding the features for our customers' benefit.
