Klingspor abrasive cloth 150 mm, grit 80, KL 381 J (MPN 266270)

KLINGSPOR abrasive cloth KL 381 J in 150 mm width with grit 80 is designed for sanding and surface preparation on wood, metal and painted surfaces. The medium-coarse abrasive structure removes material efficiently while producing an even surface suitable for further finishing. This abrasive cloth is compatible with hand sanding and with machines that use 150 mm wide abrasive strips.

Advantages

The abrasive cloth offers balanced cut rate and durability thanks to a robust cloth backing and consistent grain distribution. Its grit 80 structure provides effective material removal while maintaining a controlled surface finish. The flexible cloth backing conforms to contours and edges, improving contact on irregular surfaces and extending usable life compared with paper-backed abrasives.

Suitable for

• Sanding and shaping wooden components before finishing
• Removing old paint, rust or corrosion from metal parts
• Prepping painted surfaces for repainting or repair
• Smoothing edges and profiles on furniture and joinery
• Intermediate sanding between coats on solvent- and water-based paints

Key specifications

• Width: 150 mm
• Abrasion grade: medium-coarse (grit 80)
• Backing: durable cloth for flexibility and tear resistance
• Suitable methods: hand sanding and compatible 150 mm machine applications
• Recommended materials: wood, metal, painted surfaces

How to use

Select the 150 mm KL 381 J abrasive cloth with grit 80 for tasks requiring medium-coarse material removal. For hand sanding, fold or stretch the cloth as needed to maintain even pressure and consistent strokes. For machine use, secure the strip according to the machine manufacturer's instructions and operate at recommended feed speeds and pressures to avoid premature wear or glazing. Replace the cloth when cutting efficiency declines or the surface finish no longer meets requirements.

Usage recommendations

For best results, begin with grit 80 to remove material or old coatings, then progress to finer grits for smoothing and finishing. Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as dust masks and eye protection when sanding wood, metal or painted surfaces. Avoid excessive pressure to prolong abrasive life and prevent overheating of the workpiece.
