Product Information

Full details

Designed for professional woodworkers and metal fabricators, these high-quality sanding strips provide an aggressive cut and exceptional durability for long bed sanding applications. While these strips deliver consistent material removal and a high-quality finish, they require a compatible hook and loop backing system to ensure proper adhesion during intensive operation.

FAQs

Are these strips reusable?

While the hook and loop system allows for removal and reattachment, the abrasive grit will eventually wear down. It is not recommended to reuse strips once the cutting performance significantly diminishes.

Can these be used on wet sanding applications?

These strips are designed for dry sanding. Using them with liquids may compromise the adhesive backing and the paper substrate.

What is the primary application for P180 grit?

P180 is considered a medium-fine grit, ideal for sanding between finish coats or as a final preparation step before applying a primary finish or paint.

Do these strips have holes for dust extraction?

This specific model is a solid strip. If your machine requires dust holes, you may need to punch them manually or verify machine compatibility.

How should I store these strips to prevent damage?

Store them flat in a low-humidity environment to prevent the backing from curling or the adhesive from losing its bond.

Troubleshooting

Strip slipping during operation

Clean the hook and loop platen on the sander to remove dust build-up and ensure the strip is applied with firm, even pressure.

Abrasive surface clogging too quickly

Check that the vacuum dust extraction system is functioning correctly or reduce downward pressure to allow the abrasive to cut rather than burnish.

Strip tearing

Ensure the sanding platen is flat and the strip is perfectly aligned without air pockets or folds.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent longevity in professional environments
  • Fast, aggressive material removal rates
  • Secure hook and loop attachment system
  • Consistent finish quality across the entire strip surface

Cons

  • Requires hook and loop compatible machine plates
  • Not suitable for fine finishing or polishing
  • Limited to specific long bed sanding machine dimensions

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up, ensure your long bed sander's hook and loop platen is clean and free of debris or residual adhesive from previous strips. Align the strip carefully with the machine's dust extraction holes if applicable, and press firmly across the entire surface to engage the hook and loop fasteners. Compatibility is restricted to machines accepting 70 x 420mm strips. To extend the life of the strips, avoid applying excessive force, which can cause premature abrasive shell breakdown. When not in use, store the strips in a cool, dry environment to maintain the integrity of the adhesive backing and prevent grit shedding due to humidity exposure.
