Dust isn’t just messy.
It slows you down. It shortens disc life. It impacts finish quality. And over time, it affects operator health.
That’s why we’re introducing the 3M Xtract™ Cubitron™ II Premium Series sanding range at Wallace Heron — built for serious workshops who want performance without compromise.
The new:
-
775L Film Disc (Primary stocked range)
-
732U Paper Disc (Extended fine-grade range)
Available now in 80+ through to 1000+ grades.
This isn’t a special.
This is essential workshop equipment.
The Problem: Dust is a Productivity Killer
As outlined in the 3M Xtract™ Clean Sanding Solutions guide airborne particles:
-
Reduce visibility
-
Load abrasive surfaces
-
Increase rework
-
Create long-term health risks
With the right extraction setup, the system can achieve up to 99% dust extraction
Cleaner discs cut better.
Better cutting means less pressure.
Less pressure means longer disc life.
That’s not marketing fluff — that’s workshop efficiency.
? 775L Film Disc – Our Main Range (Fully Stocked)
The 3M™ Cubitron™ II Film Disc 775L is the backbone of this range.

? 732U Paper Disc – Fine Control & Extended Grades
The 3M™ Cubitron™ II Paper Disc 732U extends into the ultra-fine grades (240+ to 1000+ now available)
Perfect when you’re:
-
Refining coatings
-
Doing final surface prep
-
Reducing rework
-
Chasing consistent finish quality
This range complements the 775L — particularly for those finishing stages where control matters most.
? Built for the Full System
The Xtract™ system performs best when paired with:
-
Multi-hole backup pads
-
Quality dust extraction
-
Consistent pneumatic supply
The key takeaway from 3M’s system design
Sanding discs cut better and last longer when dust isn’t loading the cutting surface.
If you’re running a serious workshop, this isn’t optional. It’s smart process design.
