Advantages

These abrasive belts offer exceptional durability and consistent performance, making them an ideal choice for heavy-duty sharpening tasks. The coarse P120 grit is highly effective at reprofiling edges that have become chipped or rounded over time. By using these genuine replacement belts, you ensure that your sharpening system maintains its original efficiency and precision, allowing for faster material removal and better control during the initial stages of the sharpening process.

Suitable for

• Reprofiling damaged or chipped knife edges
• Sharpening extremely dull blades
• Removing significant amounts of metal from tools
• Restoring the bevel angle on various cutting implements

When it may not be suitable

These belts are not intended for fine honing or polishing tasks, as the coarse grit will leave a rough finish on the blade edge. They are also not recommended for delicate blades or precision finishing where minimal material removal is required.

Key specifications

• Quantity: 6 belts per pack
• Compatibility: Work Sharp MK2 knife and tool sharpener
• Application: Heavy-duty sharpening and edge reprofiling

How to use

To replace the belt, ensure the Work Sharp MK2 unit is powered off and unplugged. Open the belt housing cover and release the tension mechanism to remove the old belt. Slide the new P120 abrasive belt onto the pulleys, ensuring it is centered correctly. Engage the tension mechanism and rotate the belt by hand to verify it tracks properly before closing the cover and resuming your sharpening tasks.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your sharpening system is the Work Sharp MK2 model
• Assess the condition of your blades to ensure P120 grit is appropriate for your needs
• Consider purchasing finer grit belts separately for the final honing stages

Usage recommendations

Always maintain a light, consistent pressure when using coarse belts to prevent overheating the metal, which can ruin the blade's temper. Move the blade steadily across the guide to ensure an even grind along the entire edge.
