Product Overview
The Difference Is in the Construction
Our 3M™ Trizact™ Film Sheet 268XA has a polyester backing which makes it water resistant. As 268XA is commonly used for applications like wet sanding, it’s helpful to have an abrasive that can be run wet or dry. Moreover, using a lubricant like water can help wash away excess debris, preventing it from discoloring the substrate. While it may be run damp, one of the benefits of the sheet is that it requires little water for effective results.
As a sheet, 3M™ Trizact™ Film Sheet 268XA can be cut and shaped to meet project dimensions; the converted form gives operators an added level of flexibility.
3M Science, Applied with 3M Microreplication Technology
3M™ Trizact™ Film Sheet 268XA uses proprietary 3M microreplication technology, encapsulating aluminum oxide mineral inside tiny pyramids. These pyramids are evenly distributed over a polyester backing. While conventionally coated abrasives have erratically spaced mineral, Trizact™ abrasives focus on uniformity. As pyramids wear, fresh, sharp mineral is exposed to produce a consistent cut and a predictable, fine finish.
Great Versatility
3M™ Trizact™ Film Sheet 268XA is available in a range of grades so operators can choose the right grade for their unique application; the lower the A-grade, the finer the grade. So, operators should select a smaller grade, like A5, for a fine finish and a larger grade, like A35, for a coarser finish. Sheets are color-coded by grade to reduce the risk of mistakenly selecting the wrong grade in a sequence.
Regardless of the grade selected, operators can rely on great performance with 3M™ Trizact™ products. Operators turn to 3M™ Trizact™ Film Sheet 268XA to bring workpieces one step closer to a matte, semi-gloss or high gloss finish.
