REMOVE THE OLD FINISH, THEN REMOVE THE PREVIOUS SCRATCH

Build a floor-sanding sequence around the floor—not the finest grit in the menu

The correct starting grit depends on coating thickness, floor flatness, wood species, damage, and the finish schedule. Coordinate the big machine, edger, corners, and detail work so the final scratch is consistent.

01

Ten belts per pack

All ten belts match the selected abrasive family and grit.

02

DECISION GUIDE

What should you verify before choosing?

The exact fit, abrasive construction, grit, machine setup, work material, and finish target all affect the result.

ALUMINUM OXIDE

Broad 24–600 grit range

The original page positions aluminum oxide as a general-purpose, cost-conscious floor-refinishing choice with a broad progression.

ZIRCONIA + CERAMIC

Coarse and medium removal choices

Zirconia is listed from 24–120 grit and ceramic in selected 24–120 grits for demanding removal stages.

SILICON CARBIDE

Sharp scratch with an extended fine range

Silicon carbide is listed from 24 through 1000 grit. Grain choice and usable life still depend on the floor, coating, heat, pressure, and machine.

FLOOR WORKFLOW

Field, edges, and final scratch must agree

Vacuum and inspect between cuts. Remove remaining finish, low-area scratches, drum marks, and edger scratches before advancing.

HOW TO USE IT

Coordinate the big machine, edges, and grit sequence

Follow the floor-sander manual and the coating or finish system instructions.

  1. 01

    Confirm the machine requires a 7-7/8-inch × 29-1/2-inch belt and inspect the floor for fasteners and hazards.

  2. 02

    Choose the least aggressive starting grit that will remove the finish and required defects.

  3. 03

    Keep the machine moving whenever the drum contacts the floor and overlap passes consistently.

  4. 04

    Vacuum, inspect in good light, and coordinate edger and detail sanding before moving finer.

  5. 05

    Stop at the grit required by the wood species, stain, sealer, and finish schedule.

Use the guarding, extraction or collection, personal protective equipment, training, and operating procedures required by the machine, abrasive product, work material, and workplace.

Use it for

  • Compatible 8-inch floor sanders requiring this exact belt size
  • Removing old floor coatings with an appropriate starting grit
  • Leveling suitable solid-wood floors
  • Progressive scratch refinement before stain or finish
  • Coordinated field and edge sanding

Do not use it for

  • A floor sander requiring another width, loop length, or mounting system
  • Engineered flooring without verifying sandability and wear-layer thickness
  • Advancing before the prior scratch or remaining finish is removed
  • Dwelling with the drum engaged or forcing a loaded belt
  • Operating without required dust collection, ventilation, and PPE

PRODUCT FAQ

Questions before you choose?

Which floor sanders are named on the original page?

The original page names the Lägler Hummel, Clarke Classic 8, Apollo 8, Galaxy 2000, and ProSand. Confirm the exact belt specification in the machine manual before ordering.

Which abrasive families are available?

The live selector offers aluminum oxide, zirconia, ceramic, and silicon carbide. Each family has a different grit range.

Which grit should I start with on a wood floor?

Start with the least aggressive grit that removes the existing coating and required defects. Floor condition, flatness, species, and finish schedule determine the starting point.

How do I avoid visible sanding marks?

Keep the drum moving, use the intermediate stages needed to remove the prior scratch, vacuum and inspect between cuts, and coordinate the field and edge progression.

Can I sand an engineered wood floor?

Only if the flooring manufacturer permits sanding and the wear layer is thick enough for the planned work. A coarse cut can quickly pass through a thin veneer.

What are the shipping and return terms?

Shipping methods, rates, and delivery estimates depend on the order and destination and are shown at checkout. The return policy provides a 30-day window for eligible unused items in original condition and packaging. Restrictions and return-shipping costs apply.
