2" x 48" Zirconia Sanding Belts — Heavy-Duty Metal Grinding

USA1 Abrasives 2" x 48" Zirconia Sanding Belts are built for aggressive stock removal on hard metals where aluminum oxide falls short. Zirconia alumina abrasive is sharper than aluminum oxide and more durable than silicon carbide, delivering superior performance and longer belt life on stainless steel, hardened steel, and other demanding materials.

Technical Specifications

• Abrasive Material: Zirconia alumina
• Backing: Heavy-duty polyester/cotton cloth
• Bond Type: Resin bond
• Belt Size: 2" x 48"
• Direction: Bidirectional
• Package Size: 10 belts per pack
• Available Grits: 24–60

Key Features & Benefits

• Zirconia Abrasive: Sharper than aluminum oxide, more durable than silicon carbide — outlasts both on hard metals
• Self-Sharpening: Grains fracture under pressure to continuously expose fresh cutting edges
• Heavy-Duty Backing: Polyester/cotton cloth withstands high tension and heat of aggressive grinding
• Extended Belt Life: Significantly longer life than aluminum oxide on stainless and hard metals
• Coarse Grits: Available in 24–60 grit for maximum material removal

Recommended Applications

• Aggressive stock removal on stainless steel and hardened metals
• Weld grinding and blending
• Scale and rust removal
• Heavy deburring on metal components
• Knife making — initial blade profiling

Grit Selection Guide

• 24 Grit: Maximum aggression — rapid stock removal, heavy weld grinding
• 36 Grit: Heavy stock removal and shaping
• 60 Grit: General grinding and blending on metal
