| Name: | 1"x42" Surface Conditioning Belt |
| Description: | Empire Abrasives 1 inch x 42 inch Surface Conditioning belts are BUILT IN USA and designed to work with compatible sized back-stand belt sanders, bench-stand grinders, portable belt sanders, and knife belt sanders. What is a surface conditioning belt? These specialty belt sander belts are constructed of flexible non-woven nylon mesh fibers that are embedded with abrasive grains. Instead of grinding away a surface like a regular sanding belt, our 1" x 42" surface conditioning belts are best used for minimal stock removal tasks such as cleaning, deburring, finishing, blending surfaces, and cleaning away grinding marks/lines. They can quickly create a clean straight line finish and significantly cut down on (or eliminate) time spent hand sanding when finishing a knife blade or creating a satin finish on most surfaces. Empire Abrasives non-woven surface conditioning belts resist loading, leading to a longer lasting belt and a cleaner finish. The non-woven structure reduces heat building, preventing discoloring or damaging your surfaces. Each belt color represents a different grit/coarseness level: tan (coarse), red (medium), blue (fine), and gray (ultra-fine). |

I have used both the pads and discs to clean and polish my metal projects. I had just hoped that someday someone would produce this type of abrasive material on a 1 x 42 belt. I just happened upon Empire Abrasives and there they were. I ordered one of each grade and am looking forward to using them to clean and polish my metal projects. So far - they have performed very well...
Belt to course can't use.
I found them to be a product that is a plasure to use. It does for me just what I wanted it to do.
Arrived super quickly! I ran my blades through and got a lovely finish.
My order came way sooner than expected, and everything is on point. The ceramic belts are as they always are, awesome belts that last, even working with metal. The surface conditioner belts are a first time try for me, and as a knife maker, they have revolutionized my polishing process. Cut my hand sanding / polishing to almost nothing. Great product.
Item as described and shipped quickly.
I bought a couple of dozen belts and rolls for the sander. Excellent products, very prompt delivery, exactly as advertised. What more could one ask? Oh yes, not expensive, either.
These belts are a critical component for finishing my product. They put a fantastic satin finish on my HDPE products that make them stand out from competitors products.
Glad I found this supplier. Quick service when others dealing with Covid and supply issues
These belts are vital to my business and provide a beautiful satin finish to my products.
Fantastic belts great way to clean up knife blades
Great product, great price, fast delivery!
These are worth it -- near-mirror results without the need for hand sanding. They make finishing a breeze!
I've been buying from Empire for about a year now, mainly due to their fantastic supply of angle grinder options. Not only is the product top shelf, but their customer service is exemplary. I had a question over a simple shipping error (Not their fault) and not only did I get a personal response, but repeated unsolicited follow up messages updating me on the order status and tracking. You have me Empire! Keep up the good work. GH
