Abrasive Sanding Cloth 150 mm, grit 100, KLINGSPOR KL 381 (MPN 266299)

Abrasive sanding cloth KLINGSPOR KL 381 in 150 mm width with grit 100 is a coated abrasive designed for hand and machine sanding of wood, metal and painted surfaces. The cloth backing provides flexibility and tear resistance while the mineral grit yields uniform material removal and consistent surface finish. Intended for intermediate sanding and surface preparation, this abrasive works with sanding blocks, orbital sanders and belt sanders to smooth edges, remove old coatings and blend surfaces before finishing.

Advantages

The KLINGSPOR KL 381 sanding cloth combines a durable cloth backing with a controlled grit distribution to deliver long life and steady cutting performance. Its construction reduces clogging on softer woods and painted layers, allowing for sustained abrasion and fewer sheet changes. The product's 150 mm width is compatible with common sanding tools and offers balanced flexibility for contoured surfaces while maintaining dimensional stability for machine use.

Suitable for

• Intermediate sanding of wooden furniture and joinery
• Preparation of metal surfaces before priming and painting
• Sanding painted or varnished surfaces to remove defects and feather edges
• Use with sanding blocks, orbital sanders and belt sanders

Key specifications

• Grit: 100 (medium grit for general-purpose sanding)
• Width: 150 mm suitable for hand and machine applications
• Backing: cloth for flexibility and improved tear resistance
• Abrasive type: mineral-coated grain for steady cutting action
• Typical applications: wood, metal and painted surfaces

How to use

Select the abrasive sanding cloth with grit 100 for tasks requiring material removal and surface leveling prior to finer sanding or finishing. Secure the cloth to a compatible sanding block or machine ensuring correct tension and alignment. Apply even pressure and move along the workpiece with the grain on wood or in controlled passes on metal and painted surfaces. Replace the cloth when cutting efficiency declines or the backing shows excessive wear.

Recommendations

For best results, begin with grit 100 for intermediate shaping, then progress to finer grits for final smoothing. When working on painted surfaces test a small area first to avoid damage to underlying layers. Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as dust masks and eye protection, and ensure adequate dust extraction when using power sanders.
