Scotch-Brite Durable Flex Belt

Use Scotch-Brite Durable Flex Belts for tough detail work. They are strong and flexible, designed for efficient deburring, blending, and finishing on a variety of metals.

Features

Scotch-Brite Durable Flex Belts are easily identified by their purple backing, which uses aluminum oxide abrasive for a high cut-rate and strength over the lifetime of the belt.

• Aluminum oxide is a tough mineral that self-fractures in use, to continually create fresh cutting edges.
• Traditional abrasives such as garnet quickly wear down with use.

Benefits

It’s widely used by industry professionals because of its cut rate and long life. It’s used for grinding, sanding, and finishing for its hardness, strength, and low heat retention.

Belt sanders work continuously without clogging because of small grooves in the abrasive that open as they go around the arc of the drive wheel – a distinct advantage compared with other discs and wheels which can clog and quickly become less efficient, depending on the material being worked.

Applications

Use it on a wide variety of substrates in both woodworking and metalworking, including ferrous alloys. Use belt sanders for rapid grinding, sanding, and finishing on a variety of surfaces.
