Recommended Applications Standard Abrasives™ Industrial Scouring Hand Pad is your partner in ridding substrates of blemishes, light oxidation and rust. Commonly used in industrial cleaning and scouring applications, this pad may be a helpful abrasive to operators across industries, including the food service industry. A Steel Wool Alternative Standard Abrasives™ Industrial Scouring Hand Pad is a great alternative to steel wool, files, scrapers, wire brushes and sandpaper sheets.The high grade resin system is strong and durable, yet the open web is soft and pliable, too. Nylon fibers on the pad will not splinter, as steel wool tends to do, which helps enhance operator comfort and safety. The fibers are interspersed with sharp-cutting aluminum oxide mineral: a sharp and friable mineral that fragments under heat and pressure to reveal sharp cutting edges. While nylon fibers break down, fresh mineral is exposed, so the abrasive cuts sharper for longer. As you apply even and persistent pressure, a consistent scratch pattern is revealed. These nonwoven fibers are also spongy and responsive, so they minimize gouging or marring of the workpiece.

Using these compounds may help wash away unwanted swarf and debris while you clean.
