Description
Key Features & Benefits Sanding Belts 6 x 48 Inch
Aluminium Oxide Abrasive
-
Made with highly durable aluminium oxide grain, these belts offer aggressive stock removal while maintaining sharp performance throughout their life.
-
The abrasive grain undergoes conchoidal fracture as it wears—regularly exposing fresh sharp edges for consistent cutting power.
Robust Backing: XA167 X-Weight Poly-Cotton Cloth
-
Built on a heavy-duty poly-cotton cloth backing, these belts resist stretching and maintain dimensional stability during use.
-
The anti-static nature of the backing helps reduce dust build-up and keeps the belt operating cooler for extended life.
Resin-Over-Resin Bonding with Close Coat
-
A durable phenolic resin base coat and stabilizing overcoat keep the abrasive grains firmly in place.
-
The close-coat design tightly packs grains for a longer wear life, though it may require occasional belt cleaning when working on sticky materials.
Versatile, Multi-Material Capability
-
Ideal for tackling wood, general metal, and non-ferrous substrates — these belts are an excellent all-rounder for most sanding and finishing projects. While Deerfos offers specialized grains (e.g., zirconia for stainless steel or silicon carbide for wet sanding and automotive use),the aluminium oxide variant featured here remains a classic, go-to solution.
- Sanding Belts 6 X 48 Inch 150 X 1220mm. Cloth Backed.
- Grain Type:- Aluminium Oxide
Aluminium Oxide is a very tough and durable abrasive grain that has been laid on the cloth substrate while presenting the sharpest point. This provides excellent stock removal properties.
As the grain wears it undergoes Conchoidal fracture to keep a sharp point and keep providing the high rates of removal
- Belts Made from XA167 X-Weight Poly-Cotton Cloth
Super durable and anti static backing material allows the belt to keep its dimensional accuracy and run cooler
- Bonding:- Resin Over Resin
Phenolic resin base coat with a stabilising over coat to support the AlOx grain during the service life of the belt.
- Coating:- Close Coat
Close coat abrasives pack the abrasive grain as tight as possible onto the backing material. This will give the longest service life due to the amount of abrasive material available. This does mean that soft or “sticky” materials can clog the surface.
