Moderately Aggressive for Lighter-Weight Applications

The Standard Abrasives™ Buff and Blend Hook and Loop EP Disc is a multi-purpose product for general-duty industrial applications. It is ideal for removing light oxidation, blending minor surface imperfections, cleaning surfaces prior to coatings, removing small burrs, and performing basic equipment cleanup.

The Buff and Blend EP discs are suitable for use on a variety of substrates, including ferrous and non-ferrous metals, aluminum, high nickel/chrome alloys, and stainless steel. The non-woven construction of the disc makes it spongy and responsive, allowing it to conform to workpiece contours or irregularities.

For higher-pressure applications, we recommend using a Standard Abrasives™ Buff and Blend HP or HS Disc.

Using a Hook and Loop EP Disc

Hook and loop discs mount to a hook and loop style holder pad that is the same diameter as the disc. The holder pad (available separately) provides convenient attachment to a random orbital sander.

The Many Benefits of Standard Abrasives™ Non-Woven Products

Standard Abrasives™ Buff and Blend non-woven products offer many benefits. All Buff and Blend products have an open web, which combines abrasive mineral and non-woven nylon fibers with a resin-reinforced bond. The resin bond securely anchors mineral to the fibers, making for a strong, durable abrasive.

Gaps between fibers allow swarf to escape, so the abrasive does not get clogged with debris. Minimizing swarf and debris prolongs abrasive service life and keeps minerals cutting sharper for longer. Nylon fibers won't splinter during grinding, offering a good alternative to steel wool. Moreover, as the fibers break down and fresh mineral is exposed, it reduces the likelihood of the disc smearing the surface. Standard Abrasives™ Buff and Blend products deliver a consistent cut and finish - part after part.
