Product Information

Full details

This pack of 25 Aluminium Oxide Production Paper sheets is designed for DIY enthusiasts and professionals tackling woodworking and metalworking tasks. Its primary benefit is efficient material removal and shaping thanks to the coarse 60 grit. A potential caveat is that the coarse grit may not be suitable for fine finishing, requiring a progression to finer grits for smoother results. Each sheet measures 230 x 280mm, making them versatile for various hand-sanding applications.

FAQs

What is the primary use for 60 grit sandpaper?

60 grit sandpaper is considered coarse and is best for aggressive material removal, such as stripping paint, sanding rough wood, or shaping filler materials.

Can I use this paper for fine finishing?

No, 60 grit is too coarse for fine finishing. You will need to use progressively finer grits (e.g., 120, 180, 220, and higher) after using this paper to achieve a smooth finish.

How do I store the sandpaper?

Store the sandpaper sheets in a dry place, away from moisture and direct sunlight, to preserve their adhesive and abrasive qualities.

What surfaces can this paper be used on?

This paper is suitable for use on wood and metal, and for tasks like removing old paint and shaping filler.

Are these sheets pre-cut to size?

Yes, each sheet is pre-cut to a standard size of 230 x 280mm.

How many sheets are included in this pack?

This pack contains 25 sheets of Aluminium Oxide Production Paper.

Troubleshooting

Paper clogs quickly

Ensure you are not applying excessive pressure. Try to remove dust from the surface frequently by tapping the paper lightly or brushing it off. For some materials, a lubricant (like wax or water, depending on the material and application) can help reduce clogging, though this paper is primarily for dry use.

Grit wears down too fast

Confirm you are using the paper on appropriate materials for its grit. For very hard materials, the grit may wear faster. Ensure the surface being sanded is clean and free of debris that could prematurely dull the grit.

Tearing during use

Check for sharp edges or burrs on the surface you are sanding that may be catching the paper. Apply consistent, even pressure and avoid snagging the edges of the paper.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Effective for rapid material removal and paint stripping.
  • Large sheet size offers good coverage.
  • Durable aluminium oxide grain ensures longevity.
  • Suitable for a range of common workshop tasks.
  • Comes in a convenient pack of 25 sheets.

Cons

  • Coarse 60 grit is not suitable for fine finishing.
  • May require multiple passes with finer grits for a smooth surface.
  • Not ideal for delicate materials or high-gloss finishes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This production paper requires no specific setup. It is designed for manual use, meaning you can simply hold a sheet in your hand or use it with a sanding block for more even pressure. It is compatible with most standard sanding blocks. To care for the paper, the best practice is to use it until the grit becomes dull or clogged. Avoid getting the paper excessively wet, as this can degrade the adhesive and backing. Store unused sheets in a dry place away from moisture and extreme temperatures to maintain their abrasive quality. If dust accumulates on the surface during use, you can lightly brush it off to maintain its cutting ability.
