Mirka 9A-241-AP Abranet 6 Sanding Disc Assortment, 35 pack

These arent the cheapest, but definitely worth the money. I use them with my Festool ETC and a Festool dust extractor. Almost zero dust after and the surface is great. These also seem to not clog and last longer than standard sanding discs. I do use the pad protector that goes between the sanding disc and sander pad. I have a 5 and 6 sander and have only replaced the protector pad on either once or twice in 12-18 months. I have a small woodworking business and do a fair amount of sanding. These are definitely my favorite discs.

Abranet makes a quality sanding disc. They are durable & provide fantastic smooth surfaces as you increase the grit number. I use them on wood and epoxy with no worries about swirls, as long as you keep them clean it’s a large gum eraser as needed. This is the only sanding disc I use.

If you use these on a sander connected to a dust collector and periodically blow them off with compressed air, they last a long, long time.

Price is high but works exceptionally well and has good longevity.

Once I got my Mirka sander (I still have a Ceros) I rarely use my belt sander. With an 80x disc on there it really does a good job of taking down the surface and leaving it nice. Let the grit do the work for you- keep at the coarse until its done all it can, only then begin finer grits. I do have some of the Abranet HD that goes down to 40x, but for most everything I do I begin at 80x.

I recently conducted an informal test of 6 abrasive pads for my RO Sander. I used several brands and Mirka is awesome! Highly recommend for anyone out there who makes Epoxy Resin boards or tables.

Excellent service. Exactly as ordered.

The 80 grit Mirka Abranet discs dont seem to have any advantage over the regular granat 80 grit pad from festool - perhaps less life, in fact. Used on end grain walnut where I really needed a long-lived abrasive and was disappointed. Later; Put a gently used one on the pad protector (Festool) and it started cutting well - these are pretty good, in fact.

We all know the part we hate the most about most projects...the sanding, and the dust, and the poor quality of big box store sanding disks. This product makes that hated task a beeze. Superior dust handling if your sander is hooked up to a dust collector or vacuum. Consistent grit, so it wont leave scratches. If you havent tried this product you should. Its not 3M, but very close, and the dust removal due to the net design is great.

You can literally see right through these sanding discs! They work awesome! And if you have dust extraction hooked to your sander its a bonus. These discs rarely clog with caked on debris because they dont heat the surface your sanding on up like other conventional paper discs. Have been using mainly 120 grit. Though plan to buy other grits as I need them. Buy these and youll be pleasantly surprised.
