Robert Sorby Proedge Sharpening Belts

Description

Robert Sorby Proedge Aluminium Oxide Sharpening Belts are available in five abrasive materials, including Aluminium Oxide, Zirconium, Ceramic, Trizact, and Diamond.

Aluminium Oxide
This common abrasive is designed primarily to sharpen carbon steel bench chisels, carving tools, and plane irons but will also hone harder high-speed steel tools. The material longevity is at the lower end of the abrasives scale we use on our belts but makes an excellent economical choice. Work your way through grit sizes (heavier grits for the removal of more material) to achieve a fine finish with a 240 grit.

Zirconium
Designed for HSS tools, drill, and router bits, this material provides good value. The 60 grit belt will tackle the most damaged surface. Use the 120 to provide a rewarding cutting edge and finish.

Ceramic
This hardwearing material is a great choice for profiling and re-profiling damaged tools. The heavier 60 grit option is an efficient choice for removing plenty of material, while the finer 120 grit will provide a satisfying finish, great longevity and highly practical.

Trizact
Perhaps our most popular range of belts this robust material is designed to handle the demands of all steels. Not strictly ‘grit sizes’ these belts are built using brick and pyramid abrasive shaping. The highest 3000 ‘grit’ size will sharpen to two microns (the same sharpness as a disposable razor blade) and provide a factory finish on all steels.

Diamond
Diamond belts offer the pinnacle in abrasive technology, providing durability and flexibility. Diamond particles are precisely graded to give a long-life solution and are excellent for sharpening the most difficult of materials. They also provide a great all-round alternative and are suitable for any material
