So I have a Ridgid oscilating sander that has 4" x 24" belt attachment and been trying to find scotch-brite belts for it. Seems maverick abrrasives have them but only in quantity of 6 or more for each grit. Also mcmaster has them but at $40 each belt.
Any other places where i can get them decently priced?
Also what grit do people recommend to get? Medium, Fine, Ultra fine? basically for rust removal, getting rid of scratches etc on tools that I find and clean up lol.
Thank you for the info. I just checked the link you posted and scotch brite version is over $400 lol. but good to know about the belt version
I've been very happy with these people. They usually have everything in stock at one or several of their warehouses. Reasonably priced and USUALLY purchasable in quantities of 1. [smile] The items will show up at the house within 2-3 days.
I haven't had great luck with 3M Scotch-Brite or Dynabrade DynaBrite belts because if too much heat is generated, the adhesive that holds the ends together usually releases. For that reason I try to use Scotch-Brite products in a non-belt form like discs, flap wheels or hand pads.
These are traditional abrasive belts.
