40 Grit Ceramic, 5 in. PSAdhesive Sanding Disc - Qty:5
Diablo 5 in. 40-Grit Ceramic PSA Sanding Discs
40-Grit Ceramic, 5-in. Pressure-Sensitive Adhesive Sanding Disc - QTY: 5
Diablo's premium 5-in. 40-Grit Ceramic Random Orbital Sander Discs are designed for fast material removal, aggressive stock removal, and demanding surface preparation. Featuring a premium ceramic grain blend and industrial-grade StickFast™ Pressure Sensitive Adhesive (PSA) backing, these sanding discs provide a strong, secure bond to compatible sanding tools while delivering long-lasting abrasive performance.
The 40-grit abrasive is ideal for heavy-duty sanding applications such as fast leveling, shaping, stripping, and dimensioning. Diablo's Clog-SHIELD™ technology uses a proprietary blend of grinding agents to help reduce pitch buildup and abrasive loading, allowing the disc to cut efficiently for longer periods. The ENDURA-BOND™ superior grain bonding system further enhances durability and extends sanding life, making these discs well suited for demanding woodworking, metalworking, and plastic applications.

Ideal Applications
These 40-grit ceramic sanding discs are designed for aggressive sanding and material removal. They are especially useful for fast leveling, shaping, extra-heavy removal, stripping, and dimensioning work where a coarse abrasive is preferred.
Suggested Projects
- Paint and finish refinishing
- Deck surface preparation and reconditioning
- Floor refinishing
- Wood furniture building and refinishing
- General woodworking and project construction
- Heavy material removal and surface preparation
Designed for Efficient Material Removal
The premium ceramic grain blend is engineered to provide aggressive cutting performance while maintaining a long working life. Ceramic abrasives are particularly effective for applications where significant material must be removed, or a surface needs to be quickly brought to the desired shape or level. For the best results, coarse ceramic grits such as 40 grit are well suited to heavy removal and dimensioning before progressing to finer abrasives for intermediate and finish sanding.
Pressure Sensitive Adhesive Backing
StickFast™ backing provides an industrial-grade pressure-sensitive adhesive surface designed for a strong and secure attachment to compatible sanding equipment. The PSA construction makes these discs a convenient choice when a firmly bonded abrasive is preferred for demanding sanding operations.
Ceramic Abrasive Technology
Ceramic abrasives are manufactured through a chemical bonding process that creates a porous, engineered grain structure. Different ceramic formulations can provide varying levels of strength and performance. Ceramic grain was originally developed for aggressive grinding applications, particularly on metal, but its high-performance characteristics have made it valuable across a wide range of sanding applications.
Ceramic abrasives provide the greatest value in coarse grits where rapid material removal, leveling, shaping, or dimensioning is required. Once the heavy removal work is complete, transitioning to aluminum oxide or silicon carbide abrasives in intermediate and finishing grits can provide the appropriate surface refinement.
Natural Abrasive Grain Colors
Natural abrasive grain colors can vary by abrasive type:
- Aluminum Oxide (AO): Brown, pink, or white
- Silicon Carbide (SC): Black
- Ceramic AZ: Blue or blue-gray
- Ceramic: White
Grain color should not be used as the sole method for identifying abrasive type. Manufacturers can add dyes to the size coat during production, and stearates or lubricants may also affect the visible color of the abrasive. Always select an abrasive based on the material being worked, the desired level of material removal, and the sanding equipment being used.
