Sanding block Unimet PA KL ET 180, trapezoid shape, grit 180

Unimet PA KL ET 180 is a trapezoid-shaped sanding block with 180 grit designed for manual abrasive work. The block delivers consistent contact across flat surfaces and edges, enabling controlled sanding of wood, painted surfaces and filler. Its compact trapezoid form supports detail sanding and small-area finishing while providing a secure handhold for repetitive tasks and surface preparation.

Advantages

The trapezoid profile allows access to corners and narrow areas while maintaining a broad flat face for even abrasion. The 180 grit offers a balance between material removal and surface refinement, suitable for smoothing paint layers and shaping filler without aggressive cutting. The block construction ensures uniform pressure distribution to reduce gouging and uneven wear during hand sanding.

Suitable for

• Sanding and finishing wooden surfaces
• Preparing painted surfaces for repainting or touch-ups
• Smoothing and shaping filler or putty
• Detail sanding around edges, corners and mouldings
• DIY repairs and small woodworking projects

Key specifications

• Shape: trapezoid for edge and corner access
• Abrasive grit: P180 (medium-fine)
• Intended use: manual hand sanding
• Primary materials: wood, paint, filler/putty
• Ergonomics: compact form for secure handhold and precise control

How to use

Select appropriate safety equipment such as a dust mask and eye protection before starting. Hold the sanding block with a firm, even grip and move it with the grain on wood where applicable, using steady strokes and moderate pressure. For painted or filled surfaces, make light passes to avoid removing too much material; check progress frequently and replace the block when the abrasive surface becomes worn or clogged. Clean dust from the surface between passes to maintain consistent abrasion.

Usage recommendations

Use the trapezoid ends for corners and the flat faces for broader areas; pair the P180 grit with coarser or finer grits as needed—start with coarser paper for heavy removal, then finish with P180 or finer for smoothing. Store the block dry and away from excessive heat to preserve abrasive performance.
