220 Grit Aluminum Oxide, Sanding Sheets - Qty:10
220g Aluminum Oxide, Sanding Sheets
These are our "LIGHTWEIGHT" sheets. They are manufactured from a unique White Aluminum Oxide, which fractures into new, sharp edges as it wears. Applications include touch-up or finish sanding on non-ferrous metals, but used mostly in woodworking. Produces a soft consistent finish. This material is an excellent substitute for garnet paper,and, in most applications,i and in most applicatioans will outlast garnet.
Specifications:
- Aluminum Oxide
- Open coat
- D-weight paper (also called FINISHING PAPER)

Aluminum Oxide #40;AO#41;
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,t' sanding f iner the longer itrsquo;s used. So thyou've worked the abrasive for a while, you'llo;ve worked the abrasive for a while, yoursquo;ll be sanding more like 100 or 120 grit. Users take advantage of this characteristic by using the belts on more than one machine or application. For instance, if you have two wide belt machines doing intermediate and finish sanding respectively, you may use a 120 belt on t When,he first machine to do your intermediate sanding, and when the cut for that application is no longer as sharp, the belt can be used for 150-grit application. the cut for that application is no longer sufficient. This ensures you get the most production and the full value for the belt you purchased.
AO is very tough and durable, as stated above, and is used on bare wood, most metals (especially the steels), leageneral-purpose grain and probably the mostt is a great general purposes grain and probably the most, common grain seen today.
- 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 (24-60) in paper, the backing would we,ar out before the grain was fully utilized. Paper is extremely well-suited for belts in grits 150 finer where it will result in a finer finish per grit tha,n cloth and will cost 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 abr, and while they may at first glance appear to be less expensive, they are in fact,,in fact costlier in terms of the .te in use and while they may at first glance appear to be less expensive, they are in fact costlier in number of belts per piece worked and downtime for belt change.
Paper can be chemically treated to be waterproof and should be marked as waterproof or with the abbreviation W/D or WP.
