Titan
40 - 3,000 grit
Titan has a high quality latex coating on the backing which increases the flexibility of the abrasive and allows it to adapt to surface contours. The latex adds a cushion between the backing and the bonding and prevents grits from breaking off. This assures high surface quality, longer operational life, more reliable work results and less reworking for you. Titan is also excellent on new finishes. Aluminum Oxide, Synthetic Resin, Semi-Closed Coated.
