Arm your backstand grinders with Bear-Tex Rapid Prep AO fine grit non-woven narrow backstand belts for highly efficient fine grit final surface blending on a variety of metals and shapes. Engineered with a premium aluminum oxide abrasive grain, these belts cut up to 20 percent faster than other surface-conditioning belts. They're open-coated and crafted with proprietary Clean-Bond resin technology to minimize loading when working aluminum and other soft metals and produce smear-free finishes, even on high-nickel-content alloys. Backed with a strong, Y-weight polyester that's bonded with durable, nylon-fiber, these belts are highly durable and undergo minimal stretching.
