80 Grit Alumina Zirconia (Blue) Sanding, 3 in. Wide x 21 in. Long
Alumina Zirconia (Blue) Sanding / Planing Belt
These belts are perfect for heavy stock removal.
They work well for grinding of stainless steel, spring steel, titanium and other hard steels and for dimensioning of wood. They may also be used for heavy stock removal of plastic, rubber, glass and stone or concrete products.
Specifications:
- Top Uses: Planing wood, heavy grinding of metal (including stainless and hard steels), and dimensioning work
- Best Grit Range: Coarse grits (24–60) for aggressive material removal
- Why Choose AZ: Longer life and faster cutting in high-load applications
-
J Weight (Light / Flexible):
Best for contours and detailed work where the abrasive needs to follow the shape of the workpiece. -
X Weight (Medium / General Purpose):
A versatile backing for most sanding applications, including portable and stationary belt sanders. -
Y Weight (Heavy Duty / Polyester):
Designed for flat surfaces, high pressure, and aggressive grinding. Excellent for heat resistance and durability. - J-Flex (JF): Extra flexibility for tight curves, mold sanding, and pump sleeves
- X-Flex (XF): Added flexibility for slack belt applications
- Use J or JF for curved or detailed work
- Use X or XF for general sanding tasks
- Use Y (Polyester) for heavy grinding, flat surfaces, and high heat
- Cotton Backings (J & X): Not waterproof unless marked W/D or WP. Do not use with water unless specified.
- Polyester Backings (Y): Naturally waterproof, tear-resistant, and ideal for wet or heavy-duty applications.

Alumina Zirconia (AZ)
Best for: Heavy stock removal, long belt life, and high-pressure sanding/grinding.
Alumina Zirconia (AZ) combines the durability of Aluminum Oxide with the sharp, self-renewing properties of Silicon Carbide. This grain is engineered to stay sharp under pressure, making it ideal for demanding applications where speed and longevity matter.
Unlike lighter-duty abrasives, AZ requires machine pressure to fracture and expose new cutting edges. When used correctly, it delivers fast cutting and extended life. Without enough pressure, the grain can glaze over, reducing performance.
Tip: If you're doing light sanding or hand work, consider a different grain. AZ performs best when pushed hard with a machine.

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.
