Mirka Abranet Ace 125mm Sanding Discs

Description

Mirka Abranet Ace 125mm Sanding Discs are high-performance net sanding discs designed for tougher and more demanding sanding applications. They combine a ceramic abrasive grain with a net backing to provide fast cutting performance and effective dust extraction when used with a suitable sanding machine and extraction system.

Abranet Ace is particularly effective on hardwoods such as oak and beech, as well as solid surface materials and primer sanding applications. The ceramic abrasive provides a strong cutting action while the net construction helps reduce dust clogging during sanding.

These 125mm sanding discs are suitable for woodworking, furniture restoration, surface preparation, paint and primer sanding and a range of workshop applications.

Dust-Free Sanding

The open net construction is one of the key features of Mirka Abranet Ace. When connected to a suitable dust extraction system, sanding dust can be drawn through the abrasive rather than building up on the sanding surface.

This helps reduce abrasive clogging and can keep the work area cleaner while improving visibility of the surface being sanded. For the best results, use the discs with a compatible Mirka sanding machine and suitable dust extraction system.

Wood & Furniture Restoration

Mirka Abranet Ace 125mm discs are particularly useful for woodworking and furniture restoration. The ceramic abrasive provides effective cutting performance on hardwoods including oak and beech, making these discs suitable for removing old finishes, smoothing repaired areas and preparing timber for refinishing.

They can be used when preparing furniture and wooden surfaces before applying wood stain, oil, wax, varnish or French polish.

When working on antique furniture, veneers or delicate timber, choose the finest grit that will achieve the required result and use controlled pressure to avoid removing excessive material.

Paint & Primer Sanding

Abranet Ace is also suitable for paint sanding, primer sanding and surface preparation. The ceramic abrasive provides a fast cut while the net construction allows sanding dust to be extracted efficiently.

Start with an appropriate grit for the existing coating and move progressively through finer grades as required. Always check that an old coating is suitable for mechanical sanding and take appropriate precautions when working with older paint.

How to Use Mirka Abranet Ace 125mm Sanding Discs

1. Select the appropriate grit for the material and sanding application.
2. Ensure the sanding machine is switched off before fitting the disc.
3. Attach the 125mm Abranet Ace disc securely to a compatible backing pad using the grip fastening.
4. Connect the sander to a suitable dust extraction system where available.
5. Start the machine before bringing the abrasive into contact with the surface.
6. Use controlled movements and allow the abrasive to perform the cutting rather than applying excessive pressure.
7. Check the surface regularly as you work.
8. Replace the disc when the abrasive becomes worn or sanding performance has reduced.

Choosing the Right Grit

P80 to P120 are useful for heavier sanding and general preparation, while P150 to P240 are suitable for progressively finer surface preparation. P320 can be used where a smoother surface is required before finishing.

For furniture restoration, veneers and delicate wooden surfaces, avoid using a coarser abrasive than necessary. Starting with a finer grit can help reduce the risk of removing too much material.
