FAQs

What grit is this sanding belt?

These sanding belts are 60 grit, which is considered coarse and is ideal for efficient material removal and shaping.

What are the exact dimensions of these belts?

The nominal size of these sanding belts is 25mm in width and 762mm in length.

How many belts are in a pack?

This product is a 5-pack of sanding belts.

What material are the belts made from?

The belts are constructed from high-grade aluminium oxide, known for its durability and effectiveness in sanding.

Are these belts suitable for fine finishing?

The 60 grit is not ideal for fine finishing. For smoother finishes, you would typically move to higher grit belts (e.g., 120, 180, 220 grit) after using these for initial material removal.

Will these belts fit any belt sander?

They are designed to fit belt sanders that accept 25mm x 762mm belts, including the Loops Belt & Disc Sanders and many other leading brands. Always check your sander's specifications.

Troubleshooting

Belt not tracking straight

Adjust the tracking knob or screw on your belt sander, usually located on the front or rear roller housing, until the belt runs centered. Consult your sander's manual for specific instructions.

Belt slipping or not holding tension

Ensure the belt is correctly seated on the pulleys and that the tension lever is fully engaged. Check for debris on the rollers that might prevent proper grip. If the issue persists, the sander's tension mechanism may require servicing.

Premature wear or tearing

Ensure you are using the correct grit for the material and task. Avoid overloading the sander or applying excessive pressure. Check for sharp edges or foreign objects on the workpiece that could damage the belt.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure your belt sander is unplugged.
  2. Open the belt tension release lever.
  3. Remove the old sanding belt.
  4. Place the new belt onto the pulleys, ensuring the grit side is facing outwards.
  5. Close the tension release lever to apply proper tension.
  6. Plug in the sander and run it briefly to ensure the belt tracks correctly. Adjust tracking if necessary according to your sander's manual.

Care:

  • Clean dust and debris from the belt and pulleys regularly.
  • Store belts in a dry environment to prevent degradation of the adhesive and abrasive material.
