Silverline 100mm x 915mm 80g Sanding Belts – Key FAQs

• What is 80 grit best used for on a belt sander?
  80 grit is a versatile medium grade for general sanding—ideal for smoothing timber after coarse removal and preparing surfaces for painting, staining or varnishing.

• Will these belts fit my belt sander?
  They’re designed for belt sanders that use 100mm x 915mm belts. Check your current belt size or tool manual to confirm compatibility.

• What is GX51 backing cloth?
  GX51 is a durable cloth backing that improves strength and tear resistance, helping belts handle pressure and longer sanding sessions more reliably.
