FAQs
What is the purpose of the different grit levels (60, 120, 240)?
The 60-grit is coarse for rapid material removal and shaping. The 120-grit is medium for smoothing surfaces. The 240-grit is fine for finishing and polishing.
What materials can I use these sanding bands on?
These sanding bands are suitable for wood, metal, and plastic.
How do I know when to replace a sanding band?
Replace the sanding band when it becomes visibly worn down, the abrasive material is gone, or it starts to slip off the mandrel.
Are these bands compatible with other brands of rotary tools?
These bands are designed for Dremel rotary tools and their specific mandrels. Compatibility with other brands is not guaranteed.
What is the 6.4mm size referring to?
The 6.4mm refers to the diameter of the sanding band itself, making it suitable for smaller, more detailed work.
Can I use these for heavy-duty material removal?
While the coarser grits (60) can remove some material, these bands are primarily intended for shaping, smoothing, and finishing rather than heavy-duty stock removal.
Troubleshooting
Sanding band slips off the mandrel.
Ensure the sanding band is fully seated on the rubber tip of the mandrel. If using a screw-tightening mandrel, ensure the band is snug. Check that the mandrel rubber tip is not worn down. Try a different sanding band.
Rotary tool vibrates excessively with band attached.
Verify that the sanding band is centered and securely attached to the mandrel. Ensure the mandrel is properly inserted into the rotary tool collet and tightened. Check for any damage to the mandrel or the band.
Sanding is too aggressive or not effective.
Select the appropriate grit for your material and desired finish. Use lighter pressure for finer grits and more material for coarser grits. Ensure the sanding band is rotating in the correct direction relative to your work surface for optimal sanding.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Attach Mandrel: Insert one of the included mandrels into your Dremel rotary tool. Ensure it is securely fastened.
- Mount Sanding Band: Slide a sanding band onto the rubber tip of the mandrel. Choose the grit based on your task.
- Secure Band: The band should fit snugly. Once the tool is off, gently expand the band by tightening the screw on the mandrel (if applicable to the mandrel type) or ensure it's seated correctly against the tool's rotation direction.
Compatibility:
- This kit is designed for use with Dremel rotary tools. The 6.4mm sanding bands are compatible with mandrels that accommodate this size.
- Always ensure your rotary tool is compatible with the mandrel system.
Care:
- Storage: Store the sanding bands and mandrels in a dry place to prevent corrosion or damage.
- Cleaning: Sanding bands are consumable and are not meant to be cleaned. Replace them when they become worn or clogged with material.
- Mandrel Care: Wipe mandrels clean with a dry cloth after use. Check for any signs of wear or damage.
