Sanding Belts

Smooth or shape work surfaces. Good for general purpose sanding, the aluminum oxide abrasive on these belts is tough and won’t crack under stress. These belts are often used to remove rust and paint from steel or wood surfaces. Thanks to their cloth backing, they’re flexible yet resistant to tearing.

Long-Life Water-Resistant Sanding Belts

Change your sanding belts less often—these belts have a zirconia alumina abrasive that continuously fractures to form new sharp edges. These self-sharpening edges are great for aggressively removing material on steel and wood. Compared to aluminum oxide sanding belts, these belts sand faster and last longer. Water and cutting fluids won’t break down or soften these belts. A cloth backing makes them flexible yet resistant to tearing. Note: click on a part number to view a volume discount (if applicable).

Clog-Resistant Sanding Belts

Avoid clogs when you're removing paint or rust. The widely spaced grains on these belts give dust and debris a place to collect so they won't build up on the belt’s surface. They use aluminum oxide, the most common abrasive for general sanding. It’s tough and won’t crack under high stress. With a cloth backing, these belts are flexible yet resistant to tearing.

Uniform-Finish Sanding Belts

Multiple layers of abrasive arranged in a pattern create highly consistent finishes. The most common abrasive for general sanding, aluminum oxide is tough and won’t crack under high stress. Use these belts for removing paint and rust to final finishing. A cloth backing makes these belts flexible yet resistant to tearing.
