Norton A296 P220 Hook & Loop Sanding Disc 150 mm – 100 Pack

Norton A296 P220 Hook & Loop Sanding Disc 150 mm – 100 Pack

Norton Saint-Gobain Gold Reserve A296 P220 is a hook and loop sanding disc designed for fine sanding and surface preparation on composites, fiberglass, plastics, wood, primed and painted surfaces. Featuring a 150 mm diameter, a 7-hole dust extraction pattern and P220 grit, the product is supplied in packs of 100 discs.

The Gold Reserve A296 series combines aluminium oxide abrasive grains with a latex-reinforced paper backing and a water-based No-Fil stearate coating. This construction supports controlled surface refinement while helping maintain flexibility and reduce abrasive loading during dry sanding operations.

P220 Grit and Surface Preparation

P220 grit is suitable for fine sanding, surface refinement and preparation before subsequent finishing processes. It can be used after coarser abrasive grades to reduce sanding marks and improve surface consistency.

Typical applications include preparing composite laminates, sanding fiberglass components, refining polyester filler surfaces and working on primed materials. Where a finer finish is required, additional sanding stages using higher grit numbers may be necessary.

Gold Reserve A296 Construction

The aluminium oxide abrasive supports surface preparation across various materials. Its durable latex-reinforced paper backing provides flexibility, allowing the disc to conform to different workpiece geometries while offering resistance to tearing during sanding.

The water-based No-Fil stearate coating helps reduce the accumulation of sanding dust and debris on the abrasive surface. This anti-loading characteristic is useful when sanding fillers, primers and painted surfaces.

7-Hole Design and Hook & Loop Attachment

The 150 mm hook and loop fastening system allows convenient installation and replacement on compatible random orbital sanders. The 7-hole configuration supports dust extraction when used with a matching backing pad and suitable extraction system.

The disc can be used for sanding composite and fiberglass components, preparing wood and plastic surfaces, and performing fine sanding on primed or painted materials. The Norton Gold Reserve A296 series is also suitable for sanding aluminium and ferrous metal surfaces.

Before use, ensure compatibility between the sanding disc and machine backing pad, including diameter, attachment system and dust extraction hole pattern. The operating speed must remain within the limits specified for the equipment and backing pad. Appropriate dust extraction and personal protective equipment should be used according to the material being processed.
