Belt sander belts

It is highly important to get the right belt which will grip your wood and is used for woodworking projects while running the belt sander. A belt sander is a tool used to smooth surfaces on wood. You must know that different lengths and widths of the belts can be made for sanders from small ones to the grote ones. Selecting the appropriate size is crucial. A belt  too short will not fit your sander. If it is too big, then it will be ineffective, and you will lose money by purchasing the wrong size. 

The first thing that you need to know before you decide to buy a belt sander such as S998 Ceramic Sanding Belt is of course the grit you need for the project you are working on. Grit, which determines how rough or smooth that sandpaper is on the belt. A low grit number, such as 60, indicates the paper is very coarse. This kind of grit is useful for quickly removing large quantities of material. The higher the number, the finer the grit — so 240 is extremely smooth sandpaper. This kind works well for final touches and making surfaces nice and smooth. The grit you pick will depend on what type of wood you are using and how smooth or rough you want your finished project to be.

Top Tips for Maintaining Your Belt Sander Belts

Stay clean: Belt sander belts can become loaded with dust and debris, which can reduce their effectiveness. That means it’s not going to get the job done effectively. Keep it clean by using a stick or brush to remove dust as you use the Aimchamp Y768 Ceramic Sanding Belt. An extra step belt dust removal with compressed air (removes dust stuck on the belt). 

Store yours properly: You should also always store your belt sander belt properly when unused as well in a dry cool place. This keeps the glue responsible for holding the sandpaper on the belt from softening. If the glue weakens, the sandpaper may peel off, and the belt may become bent or warped.
