Sanding belts are the primary cutting abrasives used on drum sanders for hardwood floor refinishing, responsible for flattening floors, removing old finishes, and establishing a consistent scratch pattern.

High-quality belts cut efficiently, resist loading, and maintain sharpness longer — reducing heat buildup, chatter, and unnecessary belt changes. Proper grit progression is critical for both performance and final finish quality.

Best used when: leveling floors, stripping finishes, and establishing a controlled sanding sequence.
At Ground Floor Supply, sanding belts are selected for predictable cut and durability, not disposable performance.
