Sandpaper Cloth 230 x 280 mm K180 by GRAPHITE (model 55H880)

GRAPHITE sandpaper cloth 230 x 280 mm K180 is a flexible, cloth-backed abrasive sheet intended for sanding, smoothing and finishing a variety of surfaces. With a medium-fine K180 grit, this abrasive delivers controlled material removal and a finer surface profile suitable for final preparation before painting, varnishing or coating. The cloth backing adds durability and tear resistance, allowing for repeated use on edges and curved surfaces and compatibility with hand sanding and many sanding blocks and orbital tools.

Advantages

This sandpaper cloth combines a consistent K180 abrasive layer with a robust cloth substrate to resist tearing and provide stable performance during manual or machine-assisted sanding. The medium-fine grit balances effective material removal with surface refinement, reducing the need for extensive follow-up work. Its 230 x 280 mm size is compatible with common sanding blocks and can be trimmed to fit smaller tools or custom jigs.

Suitable for

• Smoothing wood surfaces and removing minor imperfections
• Deburring metal edges and blending welds
• Preparing painted or varnished surfaces for recoat
• Fine sanding of composite and engineered materials
• Hand sanding with blocks and detail work on curved profiles

How to use

Use the GRAPHITE K180 sandpaper cloth by either applying it to a suitable sanding block or using it by hand for small areas and contours. For machine-assisted work, trim and secure the sheet as required by the tool manufacturer. Apply even pressure and move along the grain on wood or follow smooth, consistent strokes on metal and painted surfaces. Inspect the surface frequently and switch to a finer grit after achieving the desired level of smoothness. Clean dust from the surface between passes to maintain effectiveness and avoid clogging.

Usage recommendations

For best results, start with K180 to remove small defects and then progress to finer grits when preparing surfaces for final coatings. When sanding painted or varnished surfaces, use light pressure to avoid cutting through the existing layer; on metal, ensure adequate personal protective equipment and dust control. Store the cloth-backed sheets flat and dry to preserve flexibility and performance.
