Flexi-Plast 100 Micron Abrasive Finishing Sheet – 8.5" x 11"

Flexi-Plast is a flexible abrasive finishing sheet designed for controlled surface finishing, smoothing, and refinement. This 100 micron sheet provides a relatively coarse abrasive grade for initial finishing and material removal before progressing to finer grades.

The flexible sheet format makes it useful for working flat surfaces as well as shaped, curved, and contoured areas where a rigid abrasive tool may be difficult to use. The full 8.5" x 11" sheet can also be cut into smaller pieces or strips to suit the size and shape of the workpiece.

Features & Benefits

• Flexible abrasive finishing sheet

• 100 micron abrasive grade

• Useful for initial surface refinement and material removal

• Flexible format conforms to flat and contoured surfaces

• Can be cut into smaller pieces or strips as needed

• Full-sheet format for versatile bench use

• Suitable for progressive finishing with finer abrasive grades

Specifications

100 Micron Abrasive Grade

The 100 micron abrasive grade is intended for more aggressive surface refinement than finer micron grades.

It is useful when the surface requires initial smoothing or material removal before moving through progressively finer abrasives to achieve a smoother finish.

Because micron grading describes abrasive particle size, lower micron numbers indicate progressively finer abrasive grades.

Flexible Sheet Format

Unlike rigid abrasive stones, sticks, or wheels, the Flexi-Plast sheet can flex to follow the shape of the workpiece.

This makes the material useful for:

• Flat surfaces

• Curved surfaces

• Contoured components

• Edges

• Irregular shapes

• Larger surface areas

• Small areas when cut into strips or pieces

The flexibility also allows the abrasive to be manipulated by hand when working around shapes that would be difficult to reach evenly with a rigid abrasive.

Cut to the Size You Need

The full sheet measures approximately 8.5" x 11" (216 x 279 mm).

Rather than using the entire sheet for every application, it can be cut into smaller working pieces to reduce waste and provide better control on small components.

Narrow strips can also be useful when working around curved or confined areas.

Progressive Surface Finishing

For applications requiring a progressively smoother surface, the 100 micron grade can serve as an earlier step in a multi-stage finishing process.

After the desired surface has been established with the 100 micron abrasive, progressively finer grades can be used to reduce the scratches left by the previous step and continue refining the finish.

Ideal For

• Surface smoothing

• Initial abrasive finishing

• Material removal

• Surface preparation

• Flat surfaces

• Curved and contoured components

• Detailed bench work

• Jewelry and metalworking applications

• Repair and restoration work

• Progressive abrasive finishing

Frequently Asked Questions

What size is the sheet?
The sheet measures 216 x 279 mm, approximately 8.5" x 11".

What abrasive grade is this version?
This is the 100 micron version.

Is 100 micron a fine or coarse grade?
Within a progressive micron finishing system, 100 micron is a relatively coarse grade intended for initial smoothing and material removal before moving to finer grades.

Is the sheet flexible?
Yes. Flexi-Plast is a flexible abrasive sheet, allowing it to follow curved and contoured surfaces more easily than a rigid abrasive.

Can I cut the sheet into smaller pieces?
Yes. The sheet format allows you to cut pieces or strips appropriate for the size and shape of the workpiece.

Can it be used as part of a multi-step finishing process?
Yes. After completing the desired initial surface refinement with the 100 micron grade, finer abrasive grades can be used to progressively smooth the surface.

Does a lower micron number mean a finer abrasive?
Yes. In micron-graded abrasives, smaller particle sizes correspond to finer abrasive grades.
