Sanding Belts 100mm x 560mm – Pk 5

These 100 x 560mm sanding belts deliver consistent performance across a wide range of materials and applications. Built with aluminium oxide abrasive bonded to heavy duty X-weight cloth backing, they handle everything from aggressive paint stripping to fine finishing work without premature wear or tearing. Available in five grit options from coarse 40G through to fine 150G, each pack contains five belts ready for your next job.

Why These Sanding Belts Work

The construction makes a genuine difference to how long these belts last and how well they cut. Phenolic resin bonds the abrasive firmly to the backing, so the grit stays put under pressure rather than shedding early. The X-weight cloth backing adds durability without sacrificing flexibility, which matters when you are working curved profiles or putting serious pressure on flat stock. Full top skiving reduces chatter and vibration, giving you a smoother action and cleaner results.

The closed coat design packs the abrasive tightly across the belt surface. This means higher material removal rates and a more consistent finish, though it does load up faster on soft or resinous materials. Keep a belt cleaning stick handy when working pine or anything with a high sap content.

Grit Selection for the Job

Start with 40G or 60G for stripping old paint, varnish or tackling rough stock that needs serious material removed. Move to 80G for general shaping and smoothing. The 120G and 150G belts handle finish sanding before staining or sealing, leaving a surface that takes coatings evenly without visible scratches.

These belts fit most standard belt sanders with a 100 x 560mm platen. They work well on composites, hardwoods, softwoods, ferrous and non-ferrous metals, painted surfaces and lacquered finishes. Joiners, furniture makers, fabricators and general contractors all find use for them.
