Mirka 9A-232-AP Abranet 5-Inch Mesh Grip Discs

So far so good. I do a lot of woodworking and have been extremely happy with this product.

I’ve lived Abranet products for years, and was delighted to discover a batch for my 5 inch orbital sander! Lasts longer than paper discs, which clog up quicker.

Mesh grit works better than paper. Decent Velcro adhesion. Overpriced for what they are.

I didnt realize there is a difference between the regular Abranet which uses aluminum oxide and the Abranet Ace that uses ceramic oxide. The ceramic oxide really keeps cutting for a long time. Oh well, Mirka sanders are excellent and even the regular Abranet is still a good product. FYI, seems like these burn out hook and loop pads on some non-Mirka sanders. You may want to use them with a pad saver.

Havent used this grit yet but the others that I have work pretty good at removing old finish since they dont seem to gum up like normal paper.

Not a bad product but also not good was using on a festool and a DeWalt sander had bad luck with them staying on the dewalt. They dont clog and seem to have a fairly decent life span. And since mesh dont have to worry about hole patterns lining up which is why I purchased

For Mirka sanders, this is the best sandpaper you can buy. Breaths well for good suction. True to grit, fits perfectly, doesnt gum up quickly. However, it does like to tear on sharp edges. Use minimum of 120 grit for initial edgework and this 220 to finish off.

It was what I expected

If you are looking for a top notch sandpaper, look no further. I tried out one of their starter packs a few years ago and havent regretted it. They are a little more expensive than normal sandpaper, but they are worth the money because they are almost impossible to clog. Mirkas goldflex hand sandpaper is also amazing. So far, I have not found a sandpaper brand that will outdo Mirka and I doubt I ever will.

Unfortunately, the pads do not stay stuck to my Bosch ROS20VSC. Even after thoroughly cleaning backing pad.
