FAQs

What materials can I use this Dremel Sanding Band on?

These 120 Grit Sanding Bands are suitable for shaping and smoothing wood and fiberglass, removing rust from metal surfaces, and shaping rubber surfaces.

Do I need any other accessories to use these sanding bands?

Yes, you will need the Dremel Mandrel 407 to attach these sanding bands to your Dremel rotary tool. The mandrel is not included in this pack.

What is the grit of these sanding bands?

These sanding bands have a 120 grit, which is considered fine for shaping, smoothing, and rust removal.

How many sanding bands are included in a pack?

Each pack contains six Dremel 120 Grit Sanding Bands.

What is the maximum speed I can use these bands at?

These sanding bands can be used at a maximum speed of 35,000 revolutions per minute (rpm).

What are the dimensions of these sanding bands?

They have a working diameter of 13mm and are designed for a 3.2mm shank diameter mandrel.

Can I use these for very fine polishing tasks?

While 120 grit provides smoothing, it is generally considered a finer grit for shaping and initial surface preparation, not for final, super-fine polishing. For polishing, you would typically use accessories with much finer grits or polishing compounds.

Troubleshooting

Sanding band slips or flies off during use.

Ensure the Dremel Mandrel 407's screw is fully tightened, expanding the rubber drum to securely grip the sanding band. Check that the band is correctly seated on the drum.

Poor sanding performance or slow material removal.

Verify that your Dremel rotary tool is set to an appropriate speed for the material (up to 35,000rpm for these bands). The sanding band might be worn; replace it with a new one if the grit is no longer effective. Avoid applying excessive pressure, which can reduce efficiency and damage the band.

Sanding band overheats quickly or leaves burn marks.

Reduce the rotational speed of your Dremel tool. Apply lighter pressure to the workpiece and move the tool consistently to prevent heat buildup in one area. Ensure the band is clean and not clogged with debris, as this can generate friction and heat.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Highly versatile for use on multiple material types including wood, fiberglass, metal, and rubber.
  • Effective for specific tasks like rough shaping, smoothing, and rust removal.
  • 120 grit provides a good balance for material removal without being overly aggressive.
  • Comes in a convenient pack of six, offering good value and spares.
  • Compatible with standard Dremel rotary tools, integrating easily into existing setups.

Cons

  • Requires the Dremel Mandrel 407, which is not included and must be purchased separately.
  • 120 grit may not be suitable for very fine finishing or extremely aggressive material removal.
  • Working diameter of 13mm might be too large for intricate detailing in some applications.
  • Individual bands may arrive loose if originally part of a larger multipack.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup Instructions

  1. Gather Components: Ensure you have your Dremel rotary tool, the Dremel Mandrel 407, and the 120 Grit Sanding Band.
  2. Attach Mandrel: Insert the shank of the Dremel Mandrel 407 into the collet of your Dremel rotary tool and tighten the collet nut securely using the collet wrench.
  3. Mount Sanding Band: Loosen the screw on the top of the Mandrel 407 slightly. Slide the Dremel Sanding Band over the rubber drum of the mandrel. The band should fit snugly but not be forced.
  4. Secure Band: Tighten the screw on the Mandrel 407. This expands the rubber drum, securing the sanding band in place. Gently tug on the band to ensure it's firmly seated before operation.

Compatibility

These sanding bands are designed for use with all Dremel rotary tools that can accept a 3.2mm shank diameter. Crucially, the Dremel Mandrel 407 is required for these sanding bands to function. Without it, the bands cannot be attached to your tool.

Care & Maintenance

  • Cleaning: To maintain optimal performance, remove any accumulated dust or debris from the sanding band after use. A stiff brush or compressed air can be used. Avoid using liquids directly on the abrasive surface.
  • Storage: Store sanding bands in a dry environment to prevent degradation. Keeping them in their original packaging or a dedicated accessory case will protect them from damage.
  • Replacement: Replace the sanding band when the abrasive surface becomes worn or loses its effectiveness to ensure consistent results and prevent damage to your workpiece. Continuing to use a dull band can lead to uneven sanding and overheating.
