Title: Sanding Belts
Post by: Mike Taylor2 on June 22, 2017, 04:45:00 PM

I'm looking for a good company that carries 6"/89" sanding belts for fiberglass bows.  The cheap belts only hold up for a few minutes.  What type of belt material am I looking for and where do I purchase it.  

Thanks in advance.

Zirconia or ceramic last longer. Lots of places carry them. You can even get them on the big auction site. Just search your belt size. 6 x 89 sanding belt.

Keystone Abrasives is another, for instance. They sell them on their website.

That's not a bad deal there. What's the price for a 6 x 89 belt? I buy in bulk from supergrit for a better price.
