Polishing Belts (Cork Polishing, Compact Grain, Surface Conditioning, Felt, Crocus & 3M Poly Micron)

Natural Cork polishing belts are mostly used on glass.  We sell primarily Fuji brand made in Japan.

Compact Grain/Cluster metal working belts can last three to four times longer than AO belts. They leave a satin, brushed look on metal. Knife makers and sharpeners love them. Due to the chunks of grain, their appearance is much rougher than their stated grit. It is advisable to break in each belt for 30 seconds with a piece of metal. Thereafter the grit remains consistent. When the grit on these durable belts is consumed, many of our customers add polishing compounds such as jeweler's rouge for extended use. Polishing belts are made from natural cork without grit.

These 3M™ Microfinishing Film belts are made in England with high strength film backing and micron-graded aluminum oxide mineral. They are waterproof and provide a uniform, close tolerance finish. They have a proprietary lubricated Aluminum Oxide sanding surface which is excellent on steel. The 5 mil flexible poly backing has a friction coating on the back that resists slipping. The following are approximate grit comparisons between Micron and European "P" grading: 10 mic = 2000 grit / 13 mic = 1500 grit / 15 mic = 1200 grit / 30 mic = 500 grit / 40 mic = 360 grit / 60 mic = 240 grit / 80 mic = 180 grit / 100 mic = 150 grit.

These non-woven nylon belts have a scrim reinforcement for extra strength and an abrasive resin bond which polishes and deburs metal surfaces. They are available in coarse (Brown), medium (Maroon), fine (Blue) and Ultra fine (Grey).
