Can you tell me more about the features and benefits of the Standard Abrasives™ A/O Spiral Band?
. Yes, absolutely! These spiral bands feature aluminum oxide mineral on an X-weight cotton cloth backing designed to be used efficiently with drill presses as well as straight and right angle die grinder tools. They're perfect for cleaning rubber mold sanding applications, blending mismatched or contoured surfaces, polishing stainless steel bolts after being torqued in place or flaring tubing ends that will function as seals or hose fittings. And they come highly recommended by industry professionals.
Standard Abrasives™ Aluminum Oxide Spiral Band is the perfect 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 great 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 intended 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, which makes 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.
- The rubber drum attaches to portable drills, die grinders, straight shaft and angle grinders.
- The drum requires no extra tools for band changes.
Removing contaminants from flat and contoured surfaces is smooth – in finish and operation.
