Description
Additional information

Industrial Micro-Mesh Discs for Controlled Finishing

Micro-Mesh discs use a flexible cushioned abrasive construction rather than a conventional coated grit surface. Abrasive crystals are embedded within a resilient matrix, allowing controlled movement under pressure.

This design delivers:

Consistent micro-scratch patterns
Reduced heat generation
Lower abrasive loading
Extended working life
Greater surface integrity during fine finishing

Where finish quality and predictability are critical, Micro-Mesh provides a more controlled alternative to standard sanding discs.

Optimised for Machine Efficiency

Micro-Mesh sanding discs are specified for powered finishing processes, enabling faster throughput without sacrificing surface quality.

Hook & Loop (Velcro) Backing

Rapid disc changeover during multi-grade processes
Suitable for progressive finishing sequences
Reusable in production environments

Self Adhesive (PSA) Backing

Secure, low-profile attachment
Ideal for precision-controlled finishing

Both types are compatible with orbital sanders, DA sanders and most rotary tools with a compatible backing pad:

Using machine-mounted micro-mesh discs significantly reduces finishing time while maintaining uniform surface refinement.

Tips for Use

For optimal results we recommend using Micro-Mesh discs alongside the following products to formulate a comprehensive surface finishing system:

RODA Abrasive Discs & Rings – For initial surface preparation if you’re removing deep scratches or stubborn marks.
RODA Felt Discs – Also Velcro/PSA backed. Use to apply metal finishing compounds and polish following the Micro-Mesh abrasive process.
Micro-Mesh 100% Cotton Polishing Cloth – Perfect or applying compounds & liquid abrasives by hand.
Tuf-Buf Lambswool Polishing Pads – Great for machine assisted application of Micro-Mesh liquids & compounds.
Micro-Gloss Liquid Abrasive – Follow the final Micro-Mesh stage/finest grade to enhance the finish.
Micro-Mesh Anti-Static Cream – Use after Micro-Gloss as a final step on plastics & polycarbonate to remove static charge generated during polishing.
Metal Finishing Compounds – Great way to enhance your finish when working with metal surfaces post-Micro-Mesh.

Suitable for wet or dry use. Wet sanding improves debris clearance and extends disc service life.

Micro-Mesh Types – Identify Your Process

Selecting the correct abrasive type ensures optimal cutting performance and finish quality.

Regular

For plastics, acrylic, composites, wood and soft metals.
Specified where clarity restoration and fine surface blending are required.

MX

Developed for harder metals including stainless steel.
Provides firmer backing response for controlled metallic finishing.

AO (Aluminium Oxide)

Designed for aluminium and solid surface materials such as Corian.
Offers enhanced initial refinement prior to polishing stages.

For full technical details on Micro-Mesh types, consult our Micro-Mesh grade guide.

Full Micron-Graded Range – Down to 1 micron

Micro-Mesh discs are graded in microns rather than conventional FEPA “P” grits.

Higher micron values = greater material removal
Lower micron values = finer finish

Typical progression:

1500 (30µm) – surface levelling
4000 (5µm) – pre-polish refinement
12000 (1µm) – ultra-fine finishing

Complete grade availability allows precise control of your finishing sequence.

For FEPA equivalencies and detailed comparisons, refer to our Micro-Mesh grade comparison chart.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What tools are compatible?

Hook & Loop discs are suitable for orbital sanders, DA sanders and drill backing pads. PSA discs suit rotary tools and mandrels.

What is the finest grade available?

12000 grade (1µm) provides ultra-fine finishing.

Can these discs be used wet?

Yes. Wet use reduces loading and improves finish consistency.
