Belt sanders are used for rapid grinding, sanding and finishing on a variety of surfaces. Depending on the material being worked, sanding wheels and discs may clog, quickly making them less efficient, while belt sanders continue to sand without clogging because of small grooves in the abrasive belt open as they go around the arc of the drive wheel. These belts are ideal for use with off-hand bench sanders for detailed work such as deburring, deburring edges, fine finishing, flat finishing, setting the grain, stainless steel finishing, and attaining straightline-brushed finishes. They are designed for heavy-duty deburring and finishing using backstand and off-hand equipment.

Will this belt get clogged up?

No – this sanding belt has small grooves on it that continuously open during operation to expel debris and prevent clogging. This reduces disruption to your work process and prevents damage to your workpiece while extending the service life of the belt.
