Scotch-Brite™ material sheets 96 are used to create abrasive discs, belts and pads for general purpose scrubbing, cleaning, polishing and finishing. This durable material contains very fine aluminum oxide grain and is designed for faster action and prolonged utility over common green pads. Non-rusting and resilient, it works like steel wool without leaving metal slivers behind. Clean and finish the smarter way Scotch-Brite™ material sheets 96 are designed to take on a wide variety of light abrasive applications. They are most commonly converted into handheld pads for cleaning on common kitchen items, but can also be effective in metal surface preparation and finishing in disc or belt form. Fast cutting abrasive grains are bonded to the waterproof nylon fibers using a resilient resin bond. These features combine to create an abrasive that is effective at removing surface irregularities and debris without scratching or damaging the surface. Aluminum oxide abrasive this material is filled with finely graded aluminum oxide, which is a popular choice among industrial professionals because of its fast cut rate and long life. This mineral makes a tough, durable abrasive that self-fractures to expose fresh cutting edges. This allows aluminum oxide abrasives to deliver consistent performance over a long lifespan. Due to its fast cut-rate, hardness and strength, it is widely used for grinding and finishing applications. Aluminum oxide is suitable for use on a wide variety of materials and surfaces. The Scotch-Brite™ advantage Scotch-Brite™ cleaning and finishing products are developed with abrasives incorporated into non-woven nylon or synthetic fibers. Combining abrasives with the fibers creates an abrasive system that delivers consistent results for the life of the product. The nylon webbing materials are waterproof and load-resistant and keep the abrasive minerals cutting with high performance by limiting clogging of the fibers, which also extends the life of the abrasive.
