    Hook and Loop Sanding Discs for Soft Metals, Plastic, and Rubber

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Sanding Discs. Hook and Loop Sanding Discs for Soft Metals, Plastic, and Rubber.
    Avoid buildup of soft materials and wasting discs when you need to change grit. The abrasive keeps dust from collecting and the hook-and-loop mount makes these discs reusable, unlike adhesive discs. Pair with a compatible sanding tool or backup pad.
    Cloth Abrasive Backing—Resist tearing and hold up to wet sanding better than paper-backed discs.
    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.

    Keep workspaces and discs clear of debris from soft materials. The abrasive resists gummy buildup and the holes let dust clear into your vacuum sander to keep these discs sharp longer. A hook-and-loop mount lets you switch grits without waste, unlike adhesive-backed discs. Choose the hole configuration that matches your backup pad and vacuum sander.

    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.

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Sanding Discs. Adhesive-Back Sanding Discs for Soft Metals, Plastic, and Rubber.
    Prevent clogging and smearing when sanding soft materials. The abrasive won’t trap particles, so these discs stay sharp longer. Press them 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.
