Magnate R1X30S40 1" x 30" Closed Coat Sanding Belt, Aluminum Oxide - 400 Grit; X Weight

Magnate R1X30S40 1" x 30" Closed Coat Sanding Belt, Aluminum Oxide - 400 Grit; X Weight Review



Magnate R1X30S40 1" x 30" Closed Coat Sanding Belt, Aluminum Oxide - 400 Grit; X Weight Feature

  • Woodworking or Metalworking; 400 Grit; X Weight; 10 Belts/Pkg; Resin Bond Polyester/Cotton Backings
  • Closed Coat
This closed coat aluminum oxide belt uses a "X" weight 65/35 polyester/cotton backing with a resin bond system. It is suitable for sanding and fine finishing wood as well as ferrous metals where extra fine finish and/or flexibility are required. Aluminum Oxide Abrasive Grain - Aluminum oxide is extremely tough and has a wedge shape for high penetration of tough materials without excessive shedding or fracturing of the grain. Aluminum oxide is suited particularly well for grinding high tensile strength materials i.e. carbon steels, alloy steels, tough bronze and hard woods. Aluminum oxide is used whenever toughness ( the ability to resist fracturing ) is the main consideration. Aluminum oxide products are typically brown in color. Closed Coat Abrasive Grain Coverage - Abrasive grains cover 100% of the coated surface. The greater number of abrasive grains normally results in a better finish and a higher amount of stock removal during the useful life of the product. If loading is not a problem, a Closed Coat product will give you superior life and lower cost. Closed Coat products are widely used in metalworking and woodworking applications. Resin Bond Backings - Resin bond backings offer greater resistance to heat , are more durable in heavy stock removal applications and provide the best all-around bond system.

Bosch 1274DVS 6.6 Amp 3-Inch by 21-Inch Variable Speed In-Line Belt Sander with Cloth Dust Bag

Bosch 1274DVS 6.6 Amp 3-Inch by 21-Inch Variable Speed In-Line Belt Sander with Cloth Dust Bag Review



Bosch 1274DVS 6.6 Amp 3-Inch by 21-Inch Variable Speed In-Line Belt Sander with Cloth Dust Bag Feature

  • 3-by-21-inch dustless variable-speed belt sander with compact in-line design
  • Features powerful 6.6-amp, 550-1,100-SFPM motor, removable front handle, and quick-release belt change
  • Graphite platen pad; cloth dust bag; ball-bearing construction
  • Includes sander and one sanding belt
  • 13-4/5 inches by 7-3/4 inches by 3 inches; 7.8-pounds; one-year warranty
Well-executed design combined with solid, reliable performance make this Bosch belt sander a tool with noticeable performance advantages. The Bosch features a magnesium-and-plastic housing that's lightweight yet durable. The tool is nicely balanced, comfortable, and easy to operate--important features in a tool that's often used for long periods of time for removing large amounts of stock. The Bosch comes with a cast-aluminum platen--so there's none of the warping that affects stamped-steel platens--and it sands perfectly flat right out of the box. Like many of the sanders in this class, the motor on the 1274 is aligned with the belt edge to allow flush sanding into corners. The tool's only drawback is that visibility is limited when sanding into tight corners, but that's a small minus when weighed against all the pluses. The belt-changing system works well--we didn't suffer any spring pinches--and the tracking adjustment tracks the new belt quickly and keeps it in place. There's a variable-speed dial built right into the trigger switch, which makes adjusting the belt speed fast and convenient. Wood magazine tested 10 3-by-21-inch sanders and liked the 1274DVS best. We agree that it's a great tool. --Mark McDonald
