Abrasive hook-and-loop sanding disc KLINGSPOR 125 mm PL28CK 40 grit GLS5 8 holes pack of 50

KLINGSPOR abrasive hook-and-loop sanding disc PL28CK, 125 mm diameter, 40 grit, GLS5 backing with eight ventilation holes, supplied as a pack of 50. Designed for use with 125 mm hook-and-loop backing pads on rotary or random-orbit sanders, this disc provides aggressive material removal for metal, wood and painted surfaces. The GLS5 backing combines flexibility with tear resistance to maintain contact with contoured shapes while supporting the abrasive layer for consistent cutting performance.

Advantages

This 40-grit sanding disc offers rapid stock removal and efficient stripping of paint, rust and scale. The hook-and-loop attachment enables quick disc changes without tools, while the eight-hole ventilation pattern reduces heat build-up and dust clogging during prolonged sanding. The GLS5 backing balances flexibility and strength, improving durability on curved and uneven surfaces and helping achieve a more consistent finish across workpieces.

Suitable for

• Removing old paint, varnish and rust from metal and wood
• Shaping and rapid material removal on timber and composite materials
• Preparing surfaces prior to welding, painting or coating
• Coarse sanding of filler and bodywork in automotive repair

Key specifications

• Disc diameter: 125 mm
• Abrasive grit: 40 (coarse)
• Backing type: GLS5 cloth backing
• Attachment: hook-and-loop (Velcro) fastening
• Ventilation: 8 holes for dust extraction and reduced heat
• Pack quantity: 50 discs

How to use

Fit the sanding disc onto a compatible 125 mm hook-and-loop backing pad, ensuring the holes align with the sander's dust extraction ports. Operate the sander at the manufacturer's recommended speed for the material and apply moderate, even pressure; excessive force can reduce abrasive life and create uneven removal. Replace discs when the abrasive surface is worn or clogged to maintain effective cutting and consistent results.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, use with a vacuum-equipped sander and match the hole pattern to the tool for best dust extraction. Start with 40 grit for aggressive removal, then progress to finer grits to refine the surface as needed. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection, dust mask and hearing protection during power sanding.
