3M Diapad™ are made with a precision dot pattern 100% diamond cutting surface on a lightweight foam base. These laps fit into the palm of your hand and offer fast, uniform cutting on hard to sand materials. Great for deburring and finishing non-ferrous metals like gold, silver, copper and brass as well as other materials like stone, marble, and fiberglass. Nickel bonded abrasives resist heat better than Resin bonded abrasives, otherwise there is not much difference between the two bonding materials. These diamond grits are ideal for quickly leveling or wet stoning cloisonne enamels before the final fire-polish. 

These Diamond Hand Laps are precisely graded using Microns. Microns are a unit of measurement. There are 1000 microns to a millimeter. The higher then micron number, the larger the abrasives size and the coarser the grit. sBecause these are diamond abrasives it is possible to have large grit gaps between abrasive steps. Diamond is the hardest abrasive known and very forgiving and will easily remove the previous grit scratch pattern.  

 

Recommended Applications
3M™ Flexible Diamond Hand Laps are a good match for finishing applications that require aggressive sanding.  Because diamond mineral cuts fast and sharp, 3M™ Flexible Diamond Hand Laps can minimizes the level of manual pressure needed to get the job done.

Comfortable Hand-Held Design
3M™ Flexible Diamond Hand Laps are ergonomically designed to enhance user comfort. The contoured foam backing assists with grip, so an even level of pressure may be applied over the surface area.
