Manual sanding supply Proline 49042, length 5000 mm, 1 pc

Manual sanding supply Proline 49042, length 5000 mm, 1 pc is a single-piece sanding accessory intended for manual sanding and finishing tasks. The product is a long abrasive strip on a paper backing designed to provide consistent abrasion over extended surfaces. It is suitable for preparing and smoothing wood, painted surfaces, metal, plastics, gypsum and plaster prior to finishing or repair work. Supplied as one unit per pack, the abrasive features a D paper backing, semi-open alumina coating and a synthetic resin binder to balance durability and cutting performance over the full 5000 mm length.

Advantages

The long 5000 mm format reduces the need for frequent jointing or replacement when working on extended panels and profiles. A semi-open alumina coating delivers effective material removal while resisting clogging on softer substrates and painted surfaces. The synthetic resin binder improves grit retention and wear resistance during manual operation, and the D-grade paper backing provides flexibility for contour sanding while maintaining enough stiffness for flat surfaces.

Suitable for

• Sanding and surface preparation of wooden panels and mouldings
• Removing old paint and preparing metal or plastic parts for repainting
• Smoothing gypsum, plaster and composite surfaces before finishing
• Workshop repair and finishing tasks on doors, furniture and trim

Key specifications

• Length: 5000 mm
• Width: 115 mm
• Backing material: D-grade paper
• Abrasive coating: semi-open alumina
• Binder: synthetic resin
• Packaging: single piece per pack

How to use

Cut the sanding strip to the required length for your sanding block, handheld tool or wrapped around a block for manual use. Start with an appropriate grit for coarse removal and progress to finer grades as the surface becomes smoother. Apply even pressure and move in consistent passes along the workpiece grain or across the surface to avoid uneven removal. Replace the strip when wear reduces cutting efficiency or when clogging cannot be cleared by tapping or brushing.

Usage recommendations

For best results on painted surfaces and softer woods, use light to moderate pressure and periodically clean the abrasive surface to reduce loading. When working on metal or plastics, select compatible grit grades and avoid excessive heat build-up by using steady, controlled strokes. Store the strip flat in a dry place to maintain backing performance.
