Mirka 9A-232-AP Abranet 5-Inch Mesh Grip Discs

It was what I expected

If you have a Mirka Ceros (or Deros, I would presume) sander, this is simply the best bet for sanding disks. See my other reviews. The finish achieved with these sanding disks is superior, in my opinion, to paper disks. They seem to last longer, probably a function of more efficient dust/swarf removal and less heat build up.

Sander can vacuum up all the dust. Incredible.

These sanding disks are notably more expensive versus traditional sanding disks, but so far they seem to last at least twice as long, and because they are a mesh material, they do not hold onto contaminants, or other material that can scratch or swirl the surface that is being sanded. Overall they are working great.

Only sanding mesh or paper I buy now!

When used with an adequate vacuum it is nearly dust free. A true relief.

These things last way longer than crappy box stores product. Great for epoxy bc they dont gum up. Very stiff so not good for tight curves. I use these along side Norton.

The mesh holds up just fine, but the abrasive doesn’t last. Have to use 3 times the discs vs what I can get at Home Depot. I guess you get what you pay for and these are not worth the price when you figure out how many you have to go use.

Great quality and last 2 to 3 times longer than any other sandpaper I’ve tried.

This stuff is amazing. Adding this to the Mirka sander means a practically dust free sanding experience. Obviously no sanding operation will every truly be dust free, but this stuff is right up there. You have to really pay attention to what you are doing since the lack of dust makes it seem like the pads arent working, but before you know it, youll be through veneer or have a rounded corner. I recommend the abranet abrasives for both the mirka and for woodturning since there is almost sanding dust clog. It is a little more expensive than regular paper, but lasts longer. You get what you pay for.
