Gator 4246 Emery Cloth 80 Grit 9x11 in 25 Pack

Product Description

The GATOR 4246 is an 80-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 features a J-weight cloth backing with a resin bond coating that outlasts standard glue-bond sandpaper. Sold in boxes of 25 sheets, this product is suited for both hand sanding and machine sanding applications. The medium-grit cut makes it effective for removing rust, mill scale, and surface oxidation before finishing or assembly work.

This emery cloth is used in plumbing, HVAC, and general mechanical trades for surface prep on metal pipe, fittings, and components. Common applications include cleaning copper tubing before soldering, removing corrosion from threaded fittings, and prepping ferrous metal surfaces for coating or inspection. The 9 by 11 inch sheet size works with standard hand-sanding blocks and fits most bench-top sheet sanders.

Installation Notes

Emery cloth installation requires no tools beyond a sanding block or machine clamp. When using on energized or pressurized systems, de-energize electrical circuits and depressurize and isolate piping before sanding. Discard sheets when the abrasive surface becomes glazed or loaded with debris to maintain effective cut rate. Follow applicable safety standards for eye and respiratory protection when sanding metals.
