Description
Abrasive loading, edge-shelling, and operator fatigue are three common issues when grinding and polishing aluminum and other soft metals. Cloth Belt is created to overcome these concerns. It has a Y-weight polyester cloth backing that can stand the stresses of working on gates, parting lines, and flashing in tight spaces without edge-shelling. This results in a quick cut and reduces heat build-up in the workpiece, lowering the risk of heat-related problems. Furthermore, because the abrasive keeps colder and sharper for longer, it lasts substantially longer than traditional abrasive belts, lowering operational expenses by reducing the number of belt changes.
Key Features:
- For grinding soft metal substrates like bronze, aluminum, and brass
- Strong mineral attachment for less shelling once grinding on the belt's edge
- Heat does not deteriorate the durable resin bonding, extending the life of the abrasive cloth
