Frequently Asked Questions

What grit should I choose for my sanding project?

For rapid stock removal and paint stripping, select 40-60 grit. For general smoothing and shaping, 80-120 grit works well. For final finishing before painting or varnishing, use 180-240 grit. Always progress through the grits gradually for the best surface finish.

How long do Sirius sanding belts last?

Belt life depends on material hardness, pressure applied, and grit size. Sirius belts are designed for professional use and typically outlast economy alternatives. Coarser grits generally last longer than finer grits, and proper belt tracking extends service life considerably.

Are Sirius sanding belts suitable for metal and wood?

Yes, Sirius belts perform excellently on both wood and metal surfaces. The aluminium oxide abrasive handles softwoods, hardwoods, and ferrous metals effectively, making them ideal for multi-material workshops and general fabrication environments.
