Sanding belt Metabo 3 50 x 1020 mm P 400 DGS Red

The Metabo 3 sanding belts 50 x 1020 mm P 400 DGS Red are a set of three universal abrasive belts designed for medium-fine sanding tasks. Sized at 50 x 1020 mm with P 400 grit, these belts are intended for finishing and intermediate sanding on a range of materials. The red backing denotes the DGS series construction and abrasion characteristics suited to consistent surface preparation and light material removal.

Advantages

These sanding belts offer uniform abrasion and stable performance during prolonged use, providing consistent surface quality across the belt area. The P 400 grit gives a balance between cutting power and surface refinement for visible finishing steps. Supplied in a pack of three, they reduce the need for frequent reordering and help maintain workflow continuity.

Suitable for

• Sanding and finishing of painted or lacquered surfaces
• Intermediate sanding of wood and wood-based materials
• Surface preparation before polishing or coating
• Sanding thin metal coatings and non-ferrous metals for light deburring

Key specifications

• Dimensions: 50 x 1020 mm
• Abrasive grit: P 400 (medium-fine)
• Pack quantity: 3 belts
• Color: red backing
• Construction: DGS series abrasive belt

How to use

Install the sanding belt on a compatible belt sander matching the 50 x 1020 mm size, ensuring correct tracking and tension before operation. Start sanding with light, even passes and avoid excessive pressure to maintain belt life and achieve an even finish. For best results on painted or lacquered surfaces, move the sander along the grain (if applicable) and inspect the surface periodically to prevent over-sanding.

Recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and a dust mask. Replace belts when the abrasive becomes clogged or shows visible wear. Store belts flat in a dry environment to preserve abrasive performance and backing integrity.
