Our PSA (pressure sensitive adhesive) discs are made of full resin-bonded Aluminum Oxide, heavy cloth-backed material, along with an adhesive that holds fast yet does not gum up your backing pad. Ideal for production situations that require discs to hold fast at high speeds and for repetitious, single-grit sanding of flat surfaces. Our competitors often use inferior materials or scrap when manufacturing their discs. KLINGSPOR'S offers top-quality industrial goods. You get an extended grit range so that you can pick the perfect finish every time. Each pre-glued disc attaches in seconds; peel off the release paper backing, stick, and sand.
These discs are manufactured from our premium Aluminum Oxide material for wood sanding operations where clogging or loading is a problem. Also great for sanding of soft metals such as brass or bronze.
Aluminum Oxide is made by combining bauxite and other materials in an electric furnace. The material is then crushed and screened into grit sizes using the CAMI grading system. Because the particles naturally break into pyramid-like shapes, Aluminum Oxide is a strong, durable abrasive grain.
As it is used, the grain gradually wears down and continues sanding with a finer scratch pattern. For example, a 120-grit belt used for intermediate sanding may continue to perform like a finer grit, such as 150, as it wears.
Aluminum Oxide is a tough, general-purpose abrasive commonly used on bare wood, most metals, leather, and many other materials. It is one of the most widely used abrasive grains today.
Silicon Carbide is made by combining pure white silica sand and coke, a by-product of coal production, in an electric furnace. The material is then crushed and screened into grit sizes. Its grains are shaped like sharp icicles with narrow bodies and pointed tips.
Silicon Carbide is extremely hard, second only to diamond, but it is also brittle. When pressure is applied, the grain fractures easily, exposing fresh, sharp edges. This quality, called friability, helps it produce a very consistent finish.
Because Silicon Carbide breaks down more quickly than Aluminum Oxide, it is usually used for lighter-pressure finishing applications rather than heavy material removal. It is commonly used on glass, plastic, rubber, paint, varnish, lacquer, and sealers. It may sometimes be used on very soft woods like Ponderosa Pine, but open-coat Aluminum Oxide is generally recommended for longer life.

WARNING: This product can expose you to chemicals, including Titanium Dioxide, which is known to the State of California to cause cancer. For more information please visit www.P65Warnings.ca.gov. WARNING: Some dust that is created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, or other activities contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, congenital disabilities, or other reproductive issues. These chemicals include Lead from lead-based paints, crystalline silica from bricks, cement, and other masonry products, and arsenic from chemically treated lumber materials. Your risk from exposure to these chemicals varies, depending on how often you do this work. To reduce your exposure, work in a well-ventilated area and with approved safety equipment, such as dust masks and dust collection specifically designed to filter out microscopic particles.
