Grit Equivalents Of Our Surface Conditioning Belts

Non-woven belts aren’t rated by grit, because there technically isn’t any grit on the belt. Nevertheless, you can expect certain surface conditioning belts to work similar to certain grit sizes. Below are the grit equivalents of our surface conditioning belts. 

  • Coarse (Brown) is equivalent to P120-P150
  • Medium (Maroon) is equivalent to P150-P180
  • Fine (Blue) is equivalent to P240-P280

What Are Surface Conditioning Belts & What Are They Used For?

Non-woven belts and surface conditioning belts are terms used interchangeably that refer to the same type of belt. If you're familiar with Scotch-Brite belts, then you're already familiar with non-woven belts (those belts are 3M's version of non-woven belts). Surface conditioning or non-woven belts are used to deburr, clean, blend, and finish contours, edges on irregular aluminum, stainless steel, or steel surfaces.  

Surface conditioning belts are commonly used in knife making to achieve an even, satin finish on blades. You’ll end up saving a lot of time over trying to hand sand a mirror finish. 

If you’re using surface conditioning belts for the first time, you’ll want to keep a few things in mind. First, you’ll want to use light to medium pressure with these belts. The coarse belts especially require light pressure. If you apply too much pressure, you’ll remove too much material too fast. You’ll also want to follow a proper grit sequence from coarse to medium to fin and super fine.

Customer Reviews (4.8 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Avery ★★★★★

Used one to clean up a weld seam on some aluminum stock and it smoothed the surface without gouging like regular sandpaper tends to. The non-woven material held up through the whole job, and the 2x48 size fit my sander perfectly. Three in the pack means I'm set for a while.

Ryan I. ★★★★★

The pack of three means I always have a fresh one on hand when the old one wears down on stainless steel. They’re tougher than I figured and held up well on a few aluminum pieces without shredding.

Charlotte Y. ★★★★★

I was skeptical about non-woven belts for aluminum, but the finish on these is honestly smoother than any flap wheel I’ve tried. Three in the pack means I’m not rationing them, and the 2x48 size fits my sander without any wobble. They’ve stayed flat and consistent through a full day of deburring.
