Sanding disc set, EINHELL kwb 491508 — 5 pieces (sander accessory)

EINHELL kwb 491508 is a set of five sanding discs designed as replacement accessories for compatible orbital sanders. Each disc features a fibreglass mesh lattice with silicon carbide abrasive bonded in synthetic resin and a velour reverse for secure attachment. The mesh construction resists clogging: discs can be shaken clean or rinsed under running water, extending service life and maintaining consistent abrasive performance for surface preparation and finishing tasks.

Advantages

The fibreglass mesh and synthetic-resin bonding increase durability and provide up to four times longer life compared with standard aluminium oxide abrasive paper. Silicon carbide grit delivers effective cutting on a variety of materials while the velour backing ensures reliable fit on hook-and-loop sanding pads. The open mesh structure reduces clogging and allows wet cleaning for repeated use without significant loss of abrasive action, supporting uniform results on large and small surfaces.

Suitable for

• Smoothing wood surfaces and preparing timber for finishing
• Removing old paint, synthetic coatings or acrylic layers
• Light rust removal and surface preparation on metal
• Sanding fillers and levelling repairs before painting
• General workshop and DIY sanding tasks with orbital sanders

How to use

Select an orbital sander with a matching disc diameter and ensure the sander is switched off and unplugged before fitting a disc. Align the velour backing on the sanding disc with the sander’s hook-and-loop pad and press firmly to secure. Start sanding with light pressure and steady, overlapping passes; avoid excessive force to prevent premature wear and gouging. For stubborn material or heavy build-up, progress through coarser to finer grits as necessary. After use, the discs can be cleaned by shaking out debris or rinsing under running water; allow to dry completely before reusing.

For best results on paint and filler, hold the sander flat to the surface and move it evenly; inspect the disc periodically for clogging or wear and replace when the abrasive cutting becomes ineffective.
