Aluminum Oxide AO
AO is formed by combining bauxite and other materials by firing them in an electric furnace. The resultant mass is then crushed, and the pieces sifted through successively finer screens to assign a grit size (CAMI grading). When crushed, the resulting pieces are naturally pyramidal in shape. Due to the shape and the strength of the materials used in its making, AO is a very durable grain. The grain is worn down during use, sanding finer the longer it's used.
AO is very tough and durable, as stated above, and is used on bare wood, most metals (especially the steels), leather, and a wide variety of other materials. It is a great general-purpose grain and probably the most common grain seen today.
Tips
- Work must be dry. The waterproof papers we have are all A/C weights and therefore unsuitable for belts.
- Work must be flat. Paper will not follow a contour easily and is more likely to crease, kink, or tear on contoured work than cloth.
- Work should be limited to grits 80 and finer. If you ran coarse-grit belts (24-80) on paper, the backing would wear out before the grain was fully utilized. Paper is extremely well-suited for belts in grits 150 or finer, where it yields a finer finish per grit than cloth and costs less.
- Belts should be at least 6-8 in. in width and over 150 in. long. Short belts like portable belts, belts for edge sanders, back stands, or dynafile machines are usually short and narrow and therefore have less cool down time in operation. Heat is the enemy of any abrasive. These shorter belts do not allow time for the heat built up during sanding to dissipate in use, and while they may at first glance appear less expensive, they are costlier in terms of the number of belts per piece worked and the downtime for belt changes.
Paper can be chemically treated to be waterproof and should be marked as waterproof or with the abbreviation W/D or WP.
