    Produce a smooth surface on precise, intricate grinding jobs. These bits are cushioned by rubber, so they create a smoother finish than other bits with similar grits. Made with a diamond abrasive, they last 10 to 20 times longer than rubber-cushioned bits without diamond. Their 3/32" diameter shank and small head allow them to get into intricate spots. Head diameter is measured at the widest point.
    Caution: As bit shank is exposed beyond 1/2", maximum safe rpm decreases significantly. Refer to ANSI standard B7.1. Use only accessories that have a greater rpm rating than the maximum speed of the grinder you choose.

    Long-Life Rubber-Cushioned Abrasive Grinding Bits for Metals

    Image of Product. Side1 orientation. Grinding Bits. Long-Life Rubber-Cushioned Abrasive Grinding Bits for Metals.
    A diamond abrasive that's bonded to a rubber cushioning makes these bits last 10 to 20 times longer than rubber-cushioned bits without diamond. Because they’re cushioned during grinding, these bits produce a smoother surface texture than other bits with similar grits. Also known as mounted points and die grinder bits.
    Head diameter is measured at the widest point.
    Caution: As bit shank is exposed beyond 1/2", maximum safe rpm decreases significantly. Refer to ANSI standard B7.1. Use only accessories that have a greater rpm rating than the maximum speed of the grinder you choose.

    Clog-Resistant Adhesive-Back Sanding Discs

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Sanding Discs. Clog-Resistant Adhesive-Back Sanding Discs.
    Spend more time sanding and less time replacing clogged discs. A slick coating prevents dust and debris buildup on the abrasive surface. Press these discs onto sanding tools or backup pads for a hold that won’t slip. To ensure the best bond, clean the pad with a mild alcohol—avoid harsh solvents such as MEK and acetone that can damage the adhesive. Also known as PSA discs.
    Plastic Abrasive Backing—Tear resistant and the best choice for wet sanding.
    Aluminum Oxide Abrasive—The most versatile and affordable abrasive we offer. Aluminum oxide is the go-to choice for general purpose sanding.
    Grit—The lower the grit number, the rougher the finish and the duller the appearance. The higher the grit number, the more polished the finish and the more satin or mirrored the appearance.

    Vacuum Sanders

    Pair these discs with a vacuum sander to keep your workspace clean. Dust is drawn away through the holes instead of floating into the air or building up on the abrasive. The hook-and-loop mount lets you switch grits without scrapping the disc, unlike adhesive-backed discs. Choose the hole configuration that matches your backup pad and vacuum sander.

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Sanding Discs. Extra-Flexible Hook and Loop Sanding Discs.
    Sand complex shapes, corners, and edges with foam discs that conform to your workpiece. The open cell material holds liquid for seamless wet sanding. Discs are also washable, so give them a quick rinse if they clog. The hook-and-loop mount lets you switch grits without waste, unlike adhesive-backed discs. Pair discs with a compatible sanding tool or backup pad.
    Silicon Carbide Abrasive—Super sharp to cut quickly under light pressure. Silicon carbide is hard but brittle, so it tends to wear out sooner than other abrasives.
    Grit—The lower the grit number, the rougher the finish and the duller the appearance. The higher the grit number, the more polished the finish and the more satin or mirrored the appearance.
