Scotch-Brite™ Ultra Fine Hand Pad 7448 is both durable and flexible. It can be used in place of steel wool, for conditioning metal surfaces and paint preparation. Unlike fine steel wool, our Scotch-Brite pads don’t shred during use, rust after use, or leave fine metal splinters.

A useful addition to any workshop, the durable open-web makeup of Scotch-Brite™ Ultra Fine Hand Pad 7448 resists loading and offers longevity and consistent abrasive action for conditioning metal surfaces, paint preparation and cleaning, finishing and buffing. There’s no need to adjust, turn over or replace pads before a job is finished. Our grey pad reaches into tight corners and detailed surfaces while retaining its shape. It’s designed for use as a good alternative to steel wool, running cleaner and longer. It won’t shred during use, rust after use, or leave fine metal splinters. It’s versatile to use and can be used manually, paired with a hand pad block, or run on an in-line sander for working faster on larger areas. This pad is filled with silicon carbide abrasive mineral, a very sharp synthetic mineral that’s commonly used for low-pressure applications such as paint preparation. It breaks down faster than aluminium oxide and gives a better finish. Our Scotch-Brite abrasives are unique surface conditioning products with abrasives incorporated into non-woven fibre matrix. Combining abrasives and non-woven material creates an abrasive system that delivers consistent results for the life of the product. The open-web material runs cool and is load resistant, which keeps the abrasive minerals cutting at high performance by limiting clogging of the fibres.
