    Source for Sanding Belts for Wide Belt Sander

    Tomorrow I'm finally getting delivery of my Grizzly G0445 Wide Belt Sander. Woohoo!!!!!

    I've never bought belts for a wide belt. What vendors do you like for them.

    It will require 25" x 75" belts.

    Also, what grits are most useful? I've only used drum sanders, not wide belts.

    Thanks.

    The belts I use most are 80 and 120 grit. 120 more than 80. I also have a few 150 grit that come in handy. My main supplier is Klingspor

    We use Klingspor. Cloth belts are much better. Also, check out a product called Nu-Life for cleaning belts, it will greatly increase performance and belt life.

    Not to steal the thread but does anybody have a 25”x60” or 37”x75” sander? I have some new belts that don’t fit my machine(37x60) and I’d give them away if someone close could use them

    Which Klingspor dealer do you use? I can't seem to find any by googling, or on Klingspor's website.
