Replace traditional cloth buffs and polishing compounds with these 3M 3" Radial Bristle Discs. The polishing compound is built directly into the bristles, so every use delivers a fresh charge for a consistent, uniform finish. Stack multiple discs together to build custom polishing buffs suited to your workflow — with a recommended minimum of 3 and a maximum of 8 discs per stack.
These larger 3" discs work just like their smaller counterparts, offering a clean, efficient alternative for professional jewelers and metalsmiths. The flexible, cool-running construction minimizes heat buildup during use, protecting delicate work while extending the life of the disc. Seven grits are available, ranging from aggressive cutting to ultra-fine finishing, giving you complete control over every stage of the polishing process.
Sold in packs of 10. Also available in pre-stacked, ready-to-use brushes sold individually (116.551B–116.557B) or as a complete kit of all 7 grits (116.550).
