POWERTEC 110290 80 Grit Aluminum Oxide Sanding Disk (10 Pack), 6"

The POWERTEC 110290 80 Grit Aluminum Oxide Sanding Discs are a solid choice for anyone in need of reliable sanding discs for medium-grit applications. Here's a breakdown of my experience with this product. Key Highlights: Strong Adhesive Backing The adhesive is robust, adhering well to various backing pads without peeling or shifting mid-use. This is a big plus, as some sanding discs can lose stickiness over time, but these stay firmly in place. Durability and Lifespan These discs are made with durable aluminum oxide, which stands up well to wear and tear, even during prolonged sanding sessions. The discs hold their grit longer than some other brands I've tried, making them a good choice for bulk sanding jobs on wood, metal, and even paint. Smooth and Even Sanding The 80-grit provides just the right level of roughness for medium sanding tasks, delivering a smooth and consistent finish. It effectively removes surface material without excessive clogging, which is often an issue with some lower-quality options. Affordability Considering the quality, these sanding discs offer good value for the money. You get a decent number of discs in a pack, which stretches your dollar further if you’re tackling a big project. Potential Downsides: Not Ideal for Very Fine Finishing While the 80-grit discs do a fantastic job at intermediate sanding tasks, you may want to follow up with a finer grit if you’re working on projects that need a silky-smooth finish. Final Verdict: The POWERTEC 110290 80 Grit Aluminum Oxide Sanding Discs offer reliable performance for intermediate sanding tasks, with a strong adhesive and durable grit that ensures a smooth finish. Whether you’re a DIYer or a professional, these discs are a worthy addition to your sanding toolkit.

They seem Ok, not the best adhesive backing but overall I'm happy

Fits Wen benchtop’s belt sander’s side disc. You’ll need a heat gun and thin metal scraper to peel the original one off and some paint thinner and a rag to remove the remaining sticky residue. You may want to remove the small side skirt half cover (two screws) that covers the bottom half of the wheel - to help eyeball the spinning plate’s center.

These seem as good as any I've used & price per disc is excellent. There are 3 distinct aspects to this type of sandpaper: 1) Does the sanding surface hold up, or does the grit wear off quickly 2) Does it stay stuck on to the surface 3) Does it resist tearing It passes on all 3. BTW, I've often heard people talk about sandpaper like this not sticking. Here is what I've found over the years: You have to clean the surface you are going to stick these to. If there is any of the old glue left on, for some odd reason it acts in reverse, making the new disc not stick properly. Once the old sandpaper is off, I give it a scrape with a sharp scraper, then a cleaning with mineral spirits, then dry & buff the surface with a clean paper towel, then peel & stick the new one. Doing this, I have NEVER had a disc fly off in use.

Haven’t used them yet.
