Flutter Discs (Sanding Stars) are built by layering slashed abrasive strips in different configurations. They’re made from J-weight or X-weight abrasive cloth, giving you options for flexibility or stiffness based on your task. Common uses include profile sanding on wood or polishing welds in tight corners. You can run them on handheld tools or automated…

When working with sanding belts on wood, the type of joint makes a big difference. A poor joint leaves visible lines or bumps on the surface, especially during fine finishing. The two most common joints are butt joints and lap (skived) joints. The overlap is glued and reinforced with tape on the back, not underneath…

Bonded abrasives consist of abrasive grains held together by a bonding agent. The main categories include: Vitrified Bonds – Glass-like ceramic bonds that are hard, porous, and heat-resistant. Common in grinding wheels but not typically used for flexible products like sanding belts. Resin Bonds – Synthetic polymer bonds that provide flexibility and shock resistance. These…
