Gator 4245 Emery Cloth 150 Grit 9x11 in 25 Pack

Product Description

The GATOR 4245 is a 150-grit emery cloth sheet designed for cleaning and abrading metal surfaces including steel, iron, aluminum, brass, and copper. Each sheet measures 9 inches wide by 11 inches long and is constructed on a J-weight cloth backing. A resin bond coating holds the abrasive grain, providing longer service life compared to standard glue-bonded sandpaper. This product is suited for both hand sanding and machine sanding applications. Each box contains 25 sheets. Trades working with metal fabrication, pipe fitting, HVAC coil cleaning prep, or surface restoration will find this a reliable consumable for light to medium metal surface work.

This emery cloth is commonly used in plumbing, HVAC, and electrical trades for cleaning oxidation, rust, and scale from pipe ends, fittings, and metal components prior to soldering, brazing, or connection. It is appropriate for residential and light commercial applications where a controlled, consistent grit is needed for surface preparation on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The 150-grit rating makes it suitable for intermediate material removal and surface smoothing without aggressive stock removal.

Installation Notes

Emery cloth sheets are a consumable abrasive used by HVAC technicians, plumbers, and electricians during surface preparation tasks. Ensure the workpiece is secured before sanding and wear appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection and gloves when working with metal surfaces. When used ahead of soldering or brazing operations, follow applicable code requirements such as those in the International Plumbing Code or IFGC for joint preparation. Dispose of used sheets in accordance with local regulations, especially when abrasive residue contains copper or lead-bearing alloys.
