P Grades
1. Scotch-Brite ™ nonwoven abrasives, grade is generally used to describe the finish attributes — the coarser the grade, the more aggressive cut and finish. P Grade ranges for Scotch-Brite ™ Belts are based on comparative finishes to 3M coated belts (tested on stainless steel). Grade ranges are reference point only — listed from finer to coarser. Measured finish will be affected by operator, tool, accessories used, substrate and application, and provided ranges are reference point only.
