General purpose utility rolls optimized for all materials have a closed-coat aluminum oxide abrasive applied to a cloth backing. Aluminum oxide is a strong, sharp, and durable abrasive that penetrates the work surface and withstands heat and high speeds. Closed-coat abrasives have abrasive grain across the entire surface to provide a smoother finish and faster material removal than open-coat coverage. The flexible, tear-resistant cloth backing conforms to contours and is more durable and tear resistant than paper. Example materials include metal, composites, wood, ceramic, plastic, and porcelain.

Wet/dry sanding and finishing screen rolls for soft materials have a silicon carbide abrasive applied to a screen backing. Screen-backed wet/dry abrasives don't clog and are washable for reuse. Silicon carbide is a sharp synthetic abrasive that provides a fine finish in low-pressure applications such as finishing and painting preparation. It breaks down faster than aluminum oxide. Soft materials include plastic, brass, drywall, and wood.

Cushioned utility rolls for all surfaces have an aluminum oxide abrasive. Cushioned abrasives have a foam backing that creates a consistent surface on contoured and flat surfaces. Aluminum oxide is a strong, sharp, and durable abrasive that penetrates the work surface and withstands heat and high speeds. Compatible surfaces and substrates include paint, plastic, composites, gelcoat, fiberglass, and carbon steel.

Utility roll assortments include a selection of different grits to perform a variety of sanding operations.
