Standard Abrasives™ Aluminum Oxide Spiral Band is the ideal product for polishing and blending flat surfaces and contours. Its spiral shape allows it to smoothly roll over these surfaces. The circular band rotates centrifugally as it's moved around the workpiece, and the abrasive can easily fit inside hard-to-reach areas. Standard Abrasives™ Aluminum Oxide Spiral Band is perfect for removing parting lines, tiny imperfections, and little burrs that could be difficult to remove with a larger abrasive disc or wheel.
Special FeaturesThe spiral construction on Standard Abrasives™ Aluminum Oxide Spiral Band eliminates shadow marks and chatter. Aluminum oxide mineral cuts sharp but is still friable, fragmenting under heat and pressure to reveal sharp cutting edges, so operators get a consistent cut throughout the life of the abrasive. Available in grades 24 to 320 grit, operators can choose the right grade for their project, depending on how aggressive a scratch is desired. Coarser grades, like 24, are good for heavy stock removal, whereas finer grades, like 320, are good for metal finishing and polishing.
Tips for Optimal UseStandard Abrasives™ Spiral Bands are designed for use with rubber drums. The single ply or "single thickness" abrasive fits snugly around the drum like a glove. Compared to 2- or 3-ply thicknesses, the single ply is a bit more flexible and conformable, making it a good match for contoured surfaces. It is important for both the drum and the abrasive to have the same nominal diameter to prevent skipping and bumping.
The Spiral Band stays in constant contact with the workpiece to swiftly rid the surface of little burrs. The maximum allowable RPM for spiral bands is the same as the maximum RPM of the drum, provided the drum and band have the same nominal diameter. Typically, the rubber drum attaches to portable drills, die grinders, straight shaft and angle grinders. The drum requires no extra tools for band changes.
ConclusionStandard Abrasives™ Aluminum Oxide Spiral Band is perfect for removing contaminants from flat and contoured surfaces. Its spiral shape and aluminum oxide mineral make it an ideal choice for polishing and blending surfaces. With its various grades, operators can choose the right grade for their project. When used with rubber drums, the Spiral Band stays in constant contact with the workpiece, making it easy to remove little burrs. The drum requires no extra tools for band changes, making it a convenient choice for operators.
