The Standard Abrasives Surface Conditioning Band is a highly effective abrasive product that is designed to reduce surface roughness and uneven edges that often occur when joining parts. It is also capable of conditioning coated abrasive grind lines. This makes it an invaluable tool for industries and trades where welding and fusing are common, such as automotive, aerospace, aircraft equipment and appliance manufacturers, foundries, mold and die shops, and metal fabricators. The RC material used in this band offers a high-cut rate while maintaining a consistent finish. Its ability to cut fast and leave a fine finish helps to reduce the number of finishing steps required, ultimately saving time.
Benefits of Open Web AbrasivesThe Surface Conditioning Band is made with a woven fabric (scrim) embedded in the nylon structure, providing additional strength and durability for edge work, deburring, and efficient blending of all metal types. It features a nonwoven nylon web filled with aluminum oxide mineral. The resin bond that holds the fibers and mineral together enhances the durability of the abrasive. The aluminum oxide mineral is known for its sharp cutting edges and friability, meaning it fragments under heat and pressure to continuously reveal sharp cutting edges throughout the life of the abrasive.
The gaps between the nonwoven nylon fibers allow swarf and debris to escape, preventing the abrasive from getting clogged and ensuring it maintains its sharpness for longer. Additionally, the buoyant and responsive nature of the nylon fibers ensures a consistent cut without gouging or marring the workpiece. This is particularly important for maintaining part geometry, especially on fabricated steel parts. The ability of the band to conform to the substrate without compromising part geometry helps minimize the need for rework.
Finish Hard-To-Reach AreasThe Surface Conditioning Band is designed to be used with a rubber drum (sold separately). It is crucial for the band and drum to have the same nominal diameter to ensure a tight and snug fit, as well as to prevent skidding or bumping along the surface of the workpiece. The drum's shank can be attached to a die grinder or rotary tool. The abrasive is available in a range of sizes to accommodate various project needs. One of the major advantages of this band is its ability to access and work in tight areas that may be difficult to reach with belts.
In conclusion, the Standard Abrasives Surface Conditioning Band is an essential abrasive to have on hand when joining or fusing parts. Its exceptional performance allows it to tackle tough and hard-to-reach areas, ensuring a fine finish throughout the entire part.
