SANDING BLOCKS
Use to create straight edges, square off material and produce perfect dihedral angles. Block sand large areas, profile wing leading and trailing edges, etc. Made from anodized aluminium extrusion that is light and easy to handle and will not warp. Tungsten carbide sheets are bonded to the extrusion with industrial grade double-sided tape. The Flat blocks will sand a perfect 90 degree angle when placed on their edge. The Wedge block allows you to sand into tight corners and the Contour block enables you to sand convex or concave areas. Coarse on one side of the flat blocks and Fine on the other side. The most popular grades COARSE UK 180 / US 60 & FINE UK 320 / US 120 is used as standard unless stated otherwise.
Perma-Grit Tools are the perfect companion to many hobby users. Here are
just some of the many ways our tools are in use around the world:
Model Aircraft, Boats and Cars, over the last seventeen years have
gained a reputation for manufacturing the best abrasive modeling tools
available. They have been designed by 3 times world champion Ian
Richardson and are used by aero modellers around the world. Whether
you're building from scratch or a kit, our tools are perfect for wings,
fuselages, cockpit detail & figures. Model car racing enthusiasts
use the flat files to scuff tires for more grip, and other tools are
used on the plastic and carbon bodies. Marine and scale boat modelers
use our tools on the hulls, decks and detailed work. All the tools will
cut, sand and shape quickly, all the materials found in model boat
construction. Woodcarvers and Sculptors Perma-Grit Tools have been used
by Woodcarvers and Sculptors for over 17 years. They will cut, sand and
shape all woods and stone without loading up. The Riffler and Needle
files have proved popular because they remove material much quicker than
conventional ones. Also, as they are an abrasive, they will cut in any
direction. This can be particularly useful when working in tight areas
etc. “The range of size and shapes of these files is well suited to all
but the largest scale of carvings. They cut cleanly in any direction on a
wide variety of timbers, and the random distribution of the grit gives a
smooth, sand papered type finish, rather than ridged, filed or rasped
effect. The flexible sanding strip is especially interesting to
woodcarvers. It can easily be cut, bent or stuck onto shaped pieces of
wood, making abrasive tools to get in where other tools cannot go. I am
sure most carvers will find some useful and economical additions to
their tool kits.” David Tippey in WOODCARVING magazine.
