POWERTEC 110700 A/O Sanding Belts

The cost works out to be about $2.50 or so per belt and one belt can remove a lot of metal, wood, or what ever. Never had any problem with the seams. Need to mark on the out side of the belt the grit and direction, inside of the belt when the get used, get dirty and it's hard to read the writing, Great buy!!!

I have a 2 x 72" belt sander that I built myself from scratch. I use these belts on it. I find them to work perfectly with no trouble whatsoever. They do wear out quickly. I think this is a trait of molding high carbon steel with these belts. I don't think there's anything you can do about the rate of wear. I am trying other brands to do a comparison to see if any of the other similarly priced belts last longer but for now these belts are tops.

While these aren’t the top of the line choice for durability and longevity I consistently buy and use them. I’m not a metal worker or knife maker or anything else that would ‘put them to the test’. I use them ins a woodworking shop where I do occasional metal grinding. I also get the 400 grit version which is great for sharpening a lot of edged tools. These performance very well for my use and are a great value. I’ll be sticking with them.

These are not the match in any regard for the name-brand belts in anything aside for price. Even so, they get the job done efficiently. Gripes: -belt is slightly less than 2" and doesn't fully span the back plate on our grinder. -never had a belt snap until I used these. The seams are not the greatest and I've had several break. -only get about a third the grinds as the name brand. So... still five stars, despite the gripes, because they're a fifth the price of name brand stuff at one third the durability. That math works for me. I've learned to be careful about not over using and it minimizes the breakage.

I purchased these sanding belts to be used on my Grizzly G1015 Belt Grinder and I am very pleased with their performance. They cut very well, track on the Grizzly perfectly and they last. I do recommend these belts.

Used on my Grizzly G1015 for knife grinding and they do work well. Long lasting, they even seem to cut faster and better than more aggressive grits like 150. I'm even able to skip the intermediate step of removing sanding marks from 36 or 80 grit belts by sanding with 100 or 150 before using these 240 grit belts. Definitely recommend, I plan to buy more.

I use these for grinding knives on a Grizzly grinder, and they hold up very well. They retain their abrasives well, even under heavy pressure with hard metals. They're not quite up to snuff with Norton belts, but for the price, I prefer them over the Nortons.

A decent belt for grinding steel but excellent formwood and leathers. I am a woodworker and knife maker among other things and hear belts have been an economical alternative for grinding and shaping. A great belt for woods, stays sharp. On metal great for the first few grinds then loses its edge but still a good value for the money.

Pleasantly surprised with how well they held up

Belts are right on the price point for quality. They work as intended. No issues with quality out of the box. They aren't as great or long lasting as the brand name belts (Norton etc) but these belts are also close to 1/3 of the price (atleast where I can find them in Canada).

Decent belts for the price.

Fit nice

I found these belts work very well for how inexpensive they are, they last and track well
