Festool Granat 5-Inch Disc, 600 Grit (25-pack)
Fine enough to finish. Precise enough to leave no evidence of the effort.
FEPA P-grade · Converted
P600 in CAMI grit and microns.
P600 paper averages about 25.8 µm on the FEPA table. On the US CAMI scale that is about CAMI 360. A sheet printed plain "600" is a different animal: about 16 µm, nearer P1200. If the instructions say P600 and the pack has no P on it, reach for the CAMI number, not the digits.

Questions people ask
What is P600 in CAMI grit?
About 360. P600 averages 25.8 microns on the FEPA table and CAMI 360 averages 28, so the scratch is close to the same.
How many microns is P600 sandpaper?
About 25.8 microns average particle diameter, per the FEPA P-grade table (ISO 6344).
Is P600 the same as 600 grit?
No. P600 averages 25.8 microns; a sheet printed plain "600" on the CAMI scale averages 16, which is closer to P1200. The CAMI sheet is the finer of the two.
What Trizact grade is P600?
3M pairs P600 with Trizact A35 in its Trizact brochure. Don't read the A-number as microns: 3M's own pairings put A45 at P400, which averages 35 microns on the FEPA table.

Sizes are average particle diameters from the published FEPA (ISO 6344) and CAMI (ANSI B74.12/B74.18) tables. "Nearest" means within 10%; otherwise both neighbors are shown. Trizact pairings are 3M's own. Sources: Wikipedia, "Sandpaper" grit table (rev. 1127917881); Klingspor coated abrasives grit chart; 3M Trizact A-to-P table.
