Blue Spot Tools 6 Piece 50mm (2") Aluminium Oxide Sanding Discs
MPN: 19075
Barcode: 5028734190755
Size: 50mm (2") disc diameter, 6mm (15/64") quick-change arbor
Weight: 0.14kg
Overview:
This BlueSpot Tools set pairs five 50mm aluminium oxide sanding discs with a 6mm quick-change arbor. Three grit levels - 40, 80, and 120 - cover the range from initial stock removal through to surface finishing.
Corded and cordless drills accept the 6mm quick-change arbor via their standard drill chucks. Discs attach and release rapidly without tools, so you can move between grits without stopping.
Aluminium oxide performs well across deburring, surface preparation, and general sanding tasks. The 50mm (2") diameter suits confined spaces and detail work where larger abrasives cannot reach.

How to Use
Fit the Arbor: Insert the 6mm quick-change arbor into your drill chuck and tighten securely.
Attach a Disc: Press the sanding disc onto the arbor until it locks in position.
Select Your Grit: Use 40 grit for heavy material removal, 80 grit for general preparation, and 120 grit for finer finishing work.
Apply Even Pressure: Hold the drill steady and move the disc across the surface with consistent, moderate pressure.
Change Grits as Needed: Release the disc from the arbor and fit the next grit to continue progressing through the task.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What does the grit number mean on a sanding disc?
Grit refers to the size of the abrasive particles on the disc. Lower numbers indicate coarser particles that remove material quickly. Higher numbers indicate finer particles, producing a smoother result.
What materials can aluminium oxide sanding discs be used on?
Aluminium oxide works on a range of materials, including most ferrous and non-ferrous metals, wood, and plastics. It handles general-purpose sanding, deburring, and surface preparation across multiple substrates.
Can sanding discs be used on wood as well as metal?
Yes, aluminium oxide sanding discs work on both wood and metal. Coarser grits remove material quickly, while finer grits smooth timber surfaces and reduce visible scratch patterns.
What is a quick-change arbor?
Quick-change arbors are shafts that fit into drill chucks and hold sanding discs securely. Discs attach and detach rapidly, making it straightforward to switch between grits during a job.
What is the difference between aluminium oxide and zirconia sanding discs?
Aluminium oxide is a general-purpose abrasive suited to wood, most metals, and plastics at a lower cost. Zirconia alumina is harder and self-sharpening, making it better suited to heavy-duty metal grinding applications.
Summary
This BlueSpot Tools set includes five 50mm aluminium oxide sanding discs across 40, 80, and 120 grit. A 6mm quick-change arbor fits directly into corded or cordless drill chucks. Together they cover deburring, surface preparation, and sanding in a compact, drill-mounted format.
