Ips Corporation 81500 Water-tite Open Mesh Sand Cloth 5 Yards X 1.5 Inches

Product Description

The IPS Corporation 81500 Water-Tite Open Mesh Sand Cloth is a professional-grade abrasive cloth designed for preparing copper and plastic pipes and fittings before soldering, cementing, or joining. This product is a go-to tool for plumbers, pipefitters, and general contractors who need a fast and reliable way to clean, deburr, and smooth pipe surfaces before making connections. Proper surface preparation is one of the most critical steps in any plumbing job. Burrs, oxidation, and surface ridges can compromise the integrity of solder joints and solvent-welded connections. This sand cloth removes those imperfections quickly so your connections hold tight and pass inspection. The roll measures 5 yards in length and 1.5 inches in width, giving you a generous amount of material to work through multiple fittings and pipe sections on a single job. The convenient roll format lets you tear or cut off exactly the amount you need, reducing waste and keeping your supply lasting longer on the job site. The abrasive surface is open mesh, which means debris and removed material pass through the cloth rather than clogging the abrasive face. This keeps the cutting surface active longer compared to standard closed-face abrasive products. A tear-resistant nylon backing holds up to the hand pressure and friction required for vigorous pipe cleaning, even when working around tight curves or inside fittings. The sand cloth is water resistant, making it suitable for use on wet or dry pipe surfaces in the field. It works on copper, CPVC, PVC, and other common pipe materials used in residential and commercial plumbing systems. Plumbing professionals will appreciate the consistent cut and durable construction that makes this cloth a reliable addition to any tool bag or service truck.

• Open mesh abrasive design prevents clogging and extends the usable life of the cloth
• Tear-resistant nylon backing handles tough scrubbing on copper and plastic pipe surfaces
• Water-resistant construction works on both wet and dry pipes in the field
