Sanding Discs

Disk sanders are indispensable tools in many DIY works and home maintenance. They are especially suitable for small surfaces and, depending on the nature of the project and the surface to be smoothed, they can be equipped with different abrasive discs. Choosing the most appropriate disc for the job is essential for getting good results. Commonly, sanding discs are classified according to sandpaper grains, the type of the disc, and grit grade. Other characteristics relate to the sander's model and include the mounting diameter, type of attachment, backing material, vacuum hole design, etc.

Sandpaper materials include ceramic, aluminum oxide, talc, and zirconia alumina, among others. Aluminum oxide is a popular choice for woods and various materials, yet it is not suitable for stainless steel. For this material, you need a steel grade sandpaper such as zirconia alumina. Among the disc types, flap discs are a favorite pick for good durability and outstanding versatility. The grain size is defined by the grit scale which ranges from 24, the roughest type for stock removal, to 1200, the extra-finest surfaces for refined polishing.
