Key Features and Benefits

Clean Aluminum Oxide Construction - Non-woven aluminum oxide eliminates rust stains and metal particles that contaminate work surfaces, unlike steel wool that leaves debris throughout your project. This ensures professional results without cleanup delays while maintaining consistent surface quality across all applications
Versatile Surface Conforming - Flexible pad design folds, stacks, or rolls to reach contours and irregular shapes that rigid abrasives cannot access, ensuring complete surface coverage on complex geometries and detailed work areas
25% Longer Performance - Tear-resistant construction maintains cutting action longer than traditional abrasives by resisting loading, splintering, and breakdown during extended use. This reduces replacement frequency and project costs while maintaining consistent scratch patterns
Wet/Dry Application Versatility - Engineered non-woven construction maintains performance whether used wet or dry, enabling flexible workflows for cleaning, scuffing, and finishing without clogging

Perfect Applications for Industrial Use

These professional-grade hand pads excel in demanding work environments where precision and consistency matter:

  • Automotive body shops - Primer prep and paint blending without deep scratches
  • Metal fabrication - Deburring and surface finishing with controlled material removal
  • Marine maintenance - Rust removal and surface cleaning without contamination
  • Woodworking - Grain raising and finish preparation with uniform results
  • General manufacturing - Cleaning and conditioning tasks requiring consistent quality

Frequently Asked Questions

How does this compare to steel wool?

3M Scotch-Brite hand pads provide superior performance over steel wool by eliminating rust contamination, metal splinters, and debris. They last 25% longer, provide more consistent scratch patterns, and can be used wet or dry without degrading or leaving particles on your work surface.

What's the difference between the 7447B and other Scotch-Brite hand pads?

The 7447B is a very fine grade pad ideal for finishing work, light cleaning, and surface preparation. It's less aggressive than coarser grades like 7448 but more effective than ultra-fine options for general surface prep tasks requiring controlled material removal.

Can these pads be used for woodworking projects?

Yes, these abrasive pads work well on wood for grain raising, finish preparation, and light sanding between coats. They conform to wood grain patterns better than rigid sandpaper while providing consistent results without cross-grain scratches.

Are these suitable for automotive paint preparation?

Absolutely. The very fine grade is perfect for scuffing primer, blending paint edges, and preparing surfaces for clear coat application. They won't leave deep scratches that show through paint finishes while providing the adhesion profile needed for professional results.
