⚡ At a Glance
  • Sanding Performance: Extra hard wearing aluminium oxide delivers consistent cutting action with grit 100
  • Best for: DIYers and tradespeople working on wood and regular steel surfaces
  • Not ideal for: Very fine finishing where finer grits are required

Extra hard wearing aluminium oxide with hook and loop backing, grit 100 and size 114mm by 102mm. Holes are arranged 3 + 3 for dust extraction, supplied in packs of 50, and compatible with Makita BO4555, BO4554, BO4561 and Hitachi sanders.


Longer-lasting abrasive action - thanks to extra hard wearing aluminium oxide

Aluminium oxide abrasive grains are highly resistant to breakdown under friction, so the abrasive surface retains sharp cutting edges over extended use. Hook and loop backing keeps the sheet correctly positioned during sanding.

Fewer sheet changes on medium to large jobs, which saves time and keeps workflow steady.

Cleaner work area - with a 3 + 3 hole dust extraction pattern

The dual set of three holes aligns with common palm sander extraction ports to channel dust away from the sanding face. Improved dust removal reduces clogging of the abrasive surface.

Clearer sightlines to the workpiece and a more consistent finish, especially on longer sanding runs.

Fast grit changes - with hook and loop backing

Hook and loop backing allows sheets to be removed and refitted quickly without fiddly clamps or adhesives. The backing holds the abrasive firmly under normal operating pressure.

Less downtime when switching grits, making it easier to work through roughing and finishing stages.
