Standard Abrasives A/O Spiral Band 712924, 3/4 in x 1-1/2 in 40, 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 712924 offers reliable performance with its trusted brand name. This model features aluminum oxide mineral that breaks down to reveal sharp cutting edges, ensuring a consistent cut throughout use.

Ideal for light finishing and polishing, this spiral band is designed to blend and deburr both hard and soft metals. Its spiral construction helps eliminate shadow marks and chatter, improving the finish quality on your projects.

Precise Size And Format

Measuring 3/4 inch by 1-1/2 inch, this spiral band fits snugly over rubber drums for effective abrasion. The single ply abrasive is flexible and tensile, allowing it to conform to flat and contoured surfaces with ease.

This format makes it perfect for reaching tight or hard-to-access areas, providing smooth operation and finish. The spiral band’s design also allows it to rotate centrifugally, enhancing its ability to polish and blend surfaces.

Grades For Every Task

The product comes in a range of grades from 40 grit to 100 grit, allowing you to select the right level of abrasiveness for your project. Coarser grades are suitable for heavy stock removal, while finer grades excel at polishing and finishing.

These grade options make the Standard Abrasives Spiral Band versatile for various applications, from removing parting lines to smoothing tiny imperfections and burrs on metal surfaces.

Easy Tool-Free Changes

Changing bands is simple and requires no tools, thanks to the spiral band’s design. This feature saves time and effort during work, making it convenient to switch abrasives as needed without interrupting your workflow.

The spiral band fits securely on rubber drums, which attach to portable drills, die grinders, and angle grinders. This compatibility ensures you can use the bands with a variety of common power tools.

Case Pack Convenience

This product is sold in a pack of 100 bands per case, providing ample supply for multiple projects or extended use. The pack size supports cost efficiency and reduces the need for frequent reordering.

Having 100 pieces on hand means you can maintain consistent work quality without interruption, especially when working on detailed finishing or polishing tasks that require frequent abrasive changes.
