Q: How does the mesh design help with dust?
Sanding dust passes through the open polyamide mesh instead of collecting on the grit, keeping the abrasive cutting instead of clogging with debris.

Choose an option to view item availability.
These sheets have aluminum oxide grit bonded to a tough polyamide mesh, allowing sanding dust to be drawn through the entire sheet. This maximizes dust recovery as it resists loading, increasing abrasive efficiency and reducing sheet wear.
Available in 10 grits (80x, 100x, 120x, 150x, 180x, 240x, 320x, 400x, 500x, 600x), priced per sheet
The sheets are best used with a platen protector (sold separately), which prevents damage to the platen’s hook facing and further improves airflow to the collection holes. An optional 0.28" (1/4") thick foam interface pad is available for contoured surfaces (can also be used with a platen protector).
Made in Finland.
A sample package of 14 sheets (two each of 80x, 120x, 180x, 240x, 320x, 400x and 600x) is offered separately.
Sanding dust passes through the open polyamide mesh instead of collecting on the grit, keeping the abrasive cutting instead of clogging with debris.
These Mirka Abranet 3" × 5" grip sheets are designed for hook-and-loop sanders, and the mesh backing pulls dust through the sheet for cleaner, more efficient sanding.
Not necessarily, but a platen protector, available separately, helps protect your sander's hook facing and improves airflow through the collection holes.
It's an optional 1/4" thick pad that lets the sheet conform to contoured or curved surfaces while still allowing dust extraction.
They range from 80x for aggressive stock removal up to 600x for fine finish work, covering ten grits in total.
