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.

Cushioned Sanding Belts
A cushioned layer gives you more control over sanding pressure, creating finer and more consistent finishes. These belts have a coating that prevents dust and debris from building up on the abrasive surface. They also resist deterioration when used with water or cutting fluids.

Sanding Belts for Masonry, Ceramics, and Composites
For sanding hard, nonmetal surfaces, these belts are diamonds in the rough. Their diamond abrasive is the hardest and most durable we offer—it's sharp like silicon carbide and tough like ceramic alumina. That makes them a good choice for shaping and smoothing a variety of surfaces from concrete blocks and fiberglass panels to ceramic tiles and graphite molds. These belts resist breaking down and softening from water and cuttings fluids. A cloth backing makes them flexible and resistant to tearing.

Sanding Belts for Wide-Belt Sanders
At least 16" wide, these sanding belts leave a smooth, consistent finish on large workpieces. They have an aluminum oxide abrasive, which is the most common abrasive for general use. It's tough and resists cracking under high stress. Use these belts to remove material, such as paint and rust, from steel and wood surfaces.
Sanding Belts for Aluminum, Soft Metals, and
Nonmetals—Use with Wide-Belt Sanders
Leave a smooth, consistent finish on wide workpieces. One of the sharpest abrasives, silicon carbide quickly removes material under light pressure yet doesn’t generate much heat. This prevents material from building up, so you can use these belts on soft metals, plastic, and rubber.
