| Name: | 1" x 30" Silicon Carbide Sanding Belt |
| Description: | The 1" x 30" Silicon Carbide Sanding Belt is characterized by high cutting power and a very fine scratch pattern. Silicon carbide (SiC) is an extremely sharp abrasive grain with needle like cutting surface that easily breaks away to reveal more sharp edges. This sharp characteristic makes silicon carbide sanding belts perfect for sanding objects that are pressure and heat sensitive such as stone, granite, marble, cement, and glass, in addition to epoxy, resin, paint, fiberglass, plastic, rubber and some non-ferrous metals (aluminum, titanium, bronze, brass, etc.). It is commonly used to remove various coatings such as adhesives or paints. These belts may be used for either wet or dry sanding applications as they are waterproof and oil resistant. Although Silicon Carbide is a very sharp abrasive, it is also very friable, which means the grains easily break down and fracture. This high friability makes silicon carbide ideal for light pressure applications that require consistent scratch patterns but also makes it not as long lasting as other abrasive grains. Under even light pressure, Silicon Carbide cuts fast and is great for leaving a uniform finish. Popular uses for the silicon carbide sanding belts include concrete prep work (sanding and grinding floors and walls) in addition to floor coating removal, which may include glue, urethane, epoxy and mastics. Popular industries for silicon carbide sanding belts include but are not limited to construction, fasteners, plumbing, marine, paint, floor preparation, metalworking, masonry, welding, ship building, and knifemaking (great for knife sharpening at high grits). These belts come equip with a sturdy and durable X-weight backing and can be used on a portable belt sander, benchstand grinder, backstand belt sander, bench top sander, 1"x30" industrial belt sander, etc. and are available in 36 grit, 60 grit, 80 grit, 100 grit, 120 grit, 180 grit, 220 grit, 320 grit, 400 grit and 600 grit.

United StatesA 1x30 belt sander is a cheap sander. There's not much you can do with it, even with the most expensive sanding belts. I think I've optimized my cheap machine with these 40 grit belts for economical stock removal.
United StatesVery good, I have a Real Sharp edge finishing machine that I use these belts on. First with the 120 grit for initial bevel then the 600 grit ceramic for final bevel then a woven belt with white rouge for razor edge.
United StatesI reordered these because they seem to last longer than previous brands.
United StatesWhile I haven't used the product yet I was very impressed with thier service. The young lady I spoke to was not 100% sure of her answer so she asked if she could put me on hold while she asked one of the engineers. She was correct. The order was confirmed immediately and I had the product in a few days. And it's made in the USA.
United StatesI have used your Surface Conditioning Sanding Belts both in my shop and the shop of another knife maker friend and they worked great. The ones I just got from you were at best junk. Asked my friend to see what he thought and like me could not understand what had happened. With less than 10 minutes use they were completely shot. Do not like telling you bad things and do not want my money back Fred Waddell 124 Nubbin Ridge Road Lakeview, AR 72642 870-421-6949 fred.waddell2016@gmail.com
