Standard Abrasives A/O Spiral Band 705771, 3/4 in x 1 in 36, 100 ea/Case

• Aluminum oxide mineral is friable and breaks down to reveal sharp cutting edges for a consistent cut
• No tools required for band changes
• Single ply abrasive is flexible and tensile, conforming to flat and contoured surfaces
• Spiral band easily fits over rubber drums
• Spiral construction helps eliminate shadow marks and chatter

Standard Abrasives Aluminum Oxide Spiral Band is a tensile yet strong abrasive – great for light finishing, polishing, blending and deburring on both hard and soft metals.

Recommended Applications
Standard Abrasives™ Aluminum Oxide Spiral Band is the best product for polishing and blending flat surfaces and contours, because its spiral shape enables it to smoothly roll over these surfaces. The circular band rotates centrifugally as you move it around the workpiece and – given its small size – the abrasive can easily fit inside hard-to-reach areas. Standard Abrasives™ Aluminum Oxide Spiral Band is great for removing parting lines, tiny imperfections and little burrs, which could otherwise be difficult to remove with a larger abrasive disc or wheel.

Special Features
The spiral construction on Standard Abrasives™ Aluminum Oxide Spiral Band eliminates shadow marks and chatter. Aluminum oxide mineral cuts sharp but is still friable, fragmenting under heat and pressure to reveal sharp cutting edges, so you get a consistent cut throughout the life of the abrasive. Available in grades 24 to 320 grit, you can choose the right grade for your project, depending how aggressive a scratch you desire. Coarser grades, like 24, are good for heavy stock removal, whereas finer grades, like 320, are good for metal finishing and polishing.

Tips for Optimal Use
Standard Abrasives™ Spiral Bands are intended for use with rubber drums. The single ply or "single thickness" abrasive fits snugly around the drum like a glove. Compared to 2- or 3-ply thicknesses, the single ply is a bit more flexible and conformable, which makes it a good match for contoured surfaces. It is important for both the drum and the abrasive to have the same nominal diameter to prevent skipping and bumping.

Rather than deflecting or skidding over the substrate, the Spiral Band stays in constant contact with the workpiece to swiftly rid the surface of little burrs. The maximum allowable RPM for spiral bands is the same as the maximum RPM of the drum, provided the drum and band have the same nominal diameter. Typically, the rubber drum attaches to portable drills, die grinders, straight shaft and angle grinders. The great news is, the drum requires no extra tools for band changes.

Removing contaminants from flat and contoured surfaces is smooth – in finish and operation.

Standard Abrasives Brand Quality

The Standard Abrasives A/O Spiral Band 705771 offers reliable performance with its aluminum oxide mineral. This mineral breaks down to reveal sharp cutting edges, ensuring a consistent cut throughout use. The brand is known for durable abrasives suited for various metalworking tasks.

This model, identified as 705771, is designed for light finishing, polishing, blending, and deburring on both hard and soft metals. Its spiral construction helps eliminate shadow marks and chatter, improving the quality of your work.

Precise Size And Format

The spiral band measures 3/4 inch by 1 inch, making it compact and easy to handle. Its single ply abrasive format is flexible and tensile, allowing it to conform to flat and contoured surfaces smoothly.

This size and format enable the band to fit easily over rubber drums, which are commonly used with portable drills and grinders. The small dimensions also allow access to hard-to-reach areas for detailed work.

Wide Grade Range Options

This product comes in a 36 grit grade, offering a balance between aggressive stock removal and surface finishing. The brand also offers grades from 24 to 320 grit, so you can select the right level of abrasiveness for your project.

Coarser grades like 24 are ideal for heavy stock removal, while finer grades such as 320 are better suited for polishing and finishing. The 36 grit of this model is effective for general-purpose metalwork.

Convenient Pack Count

The Standard Abrasives A/O Spiral Band 705771 is sold in a case of 100 pieces, providing ample supply for ongoing projects. This pack size supports continuous work without frequent reordering.

Having 100 bands in one case ensures you can replace worn bands quickly, maintaining efficiency. The quantity suits both professional shops and hobbyists needing consistent abrasive performance.

Easy Use And Compatibility

No tools are required for band changes, making the 705771 model user-friendly. The spiral band fits snugly over rubber drums, which attach to various power tools like die grinders and angle grinders.

The single ply thickness adds flexibility, helping the band conform to contours without skipping. Matching the drum and band diameter prevents bumping, ensuring smooth operation during polishing or deburring.
