Sanding Sheets
Coated with aluminum oxide—the most common abrasive material, hard enough to sand steel and wood. It costs less than silicon carbide but is less sharp and takes longer to abrade.

Emery Sanding Sheets
The grit particles are block shaped and cut slowly to produce a polished surface on metals.

Water-Resistant Sanding Sheets
These sheets resist deterioration when used wet or with grease, chemicals, cutting fluids, and other solvents that may be present when sanding. They are coated with aluminum oxide, the most common abrasive, which is hard enough to sand steel and wood.
Sheets with cloth backing resist tearing and can withstand continual bending.
Sheets with plastic film backing have micron-graded abrasive particles that produce a more uniform and clean finish than standard sanding sheets because of their consistent size and spacing. The plastic backing resists tearing and bends like cloth, plus it has a high-friction coating to prevent slipping on the work surface—particularly good while wet sanding.

Clog-Resistant Sanding Rolls
A slick coating on these rolls prevents debris from accumulating on the abrasive surface and keeps operating temperatures low. Aluminum oxide, the most common abrasive material, is hard enough to sand steel and wood. It costs less than silicon carbide but is less sharp and takes longer to abrade. These rolls can be cut to length.
Water-Resistant Sanding Sheets for Aluminum, Soft Metals, and Nonmetals
These sheets resist deterioration when used wet or with grease, chemicals, cutting fluids, and other solvents that may be present when sanding.

Cushioned Sanding Pads for Aluminum, Soft Metals, and Nonmetals
Sized for tight spaces, these small pads sand flat and curved surfaces. They have a flexible foam layer that gives you more control over sanding pressure, creating finer and more consistent finishes. The abrasive is on the top and bottom. Pads resist deterioration when used wet or with grease, chemicals, cutting fluids, and other solvents that may be present when sanding.

Cushioned Sanding Sheets for Aluminum, Soft Metals, and Nonmetals
The cushioned layer of these abrasive-embedded cloth sheets gives you more control over sanding pressure, creating finer and more consistent finishes. They resist deterioration when used wet or with grease, chemicals, cutting fluids, and other solvents that may be present when sanding.

Adhesive-Back Sanding Rolls for Stainless Steel and Hard Metals
Use these rolls to create consistent finishes on hard metals such as stainless steel, iron, and nickel. They have a slick coating that prevents debris from accumulating on the abrasive surface and keeps operating temperatures low. Cut the length you need and stick it on your sanding tool. When it’s time to change the sheet, peel it off.
Ceramic alumina grit continually fractures to produce new, sharp cutting edges. It's sharp and dense enough to shape hard metals such as stainless steel and nickel without dulling quickly.

Hook and Loop Vacuum Sanding Rolls for Stainless Steel and Hard Metals
Holes allow dust removal when used with a vacuum sander to prevent buildup of debris on the abrasive surface. Cut these rolls to the size you need or tear them at the perforated lines every 2 ¾”—with dozens of small holes, they can be used with any style of vacuum sander, regardless of its hole configuration. Hook and loop lets you quickly attach, remove, and reuse this material. Ceramic alumina grit continually fractures to produce new, sharp cutting edges. It's sharp and dense enough to shape hard metals such as stainless steel, nickel, and cast iron without dulling quickly. It sands faster and lasts longer than aluminum oxide but requires more force to abrade properly.

Super-Flexible Cushioned Hook and Loop Sanding Discs
Made of foam, these discs can conform to contoured shapes, corners, and sharp edges. Quickly attach, remove, and reuse with a compatible sanding tool or backup pad (sold separately). Discs resist deterioration when used wet.

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.
