Description
Professional Abrasive · Air Tool Consumables
20mm × 480mm Sanding Belt
100 Grit Aluminium Oxide
Self-Sharpening Grain · Heavy-Duty Cloth Backing · UK Stock
Engineered for professionals who demand consistent, repeatable results — this 20mm × 480mm aluminium oxide sanding belt delivers controlled material removal across metal, wood, plastic, and composite surfaces. The self-sharpening grain fractures under load to continuously expose fresh cutting edges, maintaining aggressive stock removal throughout the belt's working life.
Performance Advantages
Self-Sharpening Grain
Aluminium oxide crystals fracture under pressure, continuously exposing sharp cutting edges for sustained performance across the full belt life.
Heavy-Duty Cloth Backing
Resin-over-resin bonded cloth/paper composite resists tearing and heat build-up, maintaining dimensional stability under sustained load.
Precision Dimensions
20mm × 480mm format is precision-cut for a secure, vibration-free fit on standard air-powered belt and file sanders — no trimming required.
Versatile 100 Grit
Medium grit classification bridges the gap between aggressive stock removal and refined surface preparation — ideal for pre-paint, deburring, and blending.

Frequently Asked Questions
What materials can this belt sand?
This belt is suitable for metal, mild steel, stainless steel, wood, MDF, plastic, GRP composites, and painted surfaces. The 100 grit classification makes it particularly effective for intermediate stock removal and pre-finish preparation.
Is 100 grit suitable for final finishing?
100 grit is a medium abrasive — ideal for blending, deburring, and pre-paint keying. For a finer final finish on wood or metal, follow with a 120–180 grit belt. For pre-paint on automotive panels, 100 grit is typically the final abrasive step before primer.
Will this fit my air belt sander?
This belt is precision-cut to 20mm × 480mm. Verify your sander's belt specification before ordering. It is compatible with all standard 20 × 480mm pneumatic belt sanders, file sanders, and bench sanders.
How long does a belt typically last?
Belt life depends on material hardness, applied pressure, and operating speed. The self-sharpening aluminium oxide grain extends working life compared to standard abrasives. For high-volume workshop use, purchasing in multi-packs is recommended.
