A cleaning disc 50 mm in diameter and 9 mm thick that pulls clogged plastic and resin dust out of sanding sticks, files and abrasive papers. The tool then sands again and lasts longer.
Responsibility details are not available.
The disc is 50 mm in diameter and 9 mm thick. Its job is to pull out of an abrasive surface whatever has been pressed into it: melted plastic, resin dust, wood shavings and filler residue. Clogged abrasive does not stop being sharp; it merely saturates with material between the grains and stops cutting. After a pass over the disc the surface of the tool opens up again and sands as it did before.
It does the greatest service on sanding sticks, sanding files, cloth belts and fine papers, that is on tools that cannot sensibly be washed and that would otherwise have to be replaced. It serves equally well on the rotary bits of a mini drill, where clogging shows up at once as a drop in effect and as extra heating of the part being sanded.
The procedure is simple: hold the disc firmly and run the clogged surface over it several times, or, when working with a mini drill, carefully bring it up to the spinning bit. The clogging hardens, crumbles and falls away along with the material residue. Do the work over a waste bin, because the dirt falls freely. The disc wears down gradually during cleaning, which is a normal expression of its function rather than extra wear, and it lasts for a large number of cleanings.
Clogged abrasive tempts a modeler into pressing harder. That raises the risk of erasing engraved detail or bending a thin wall of a part. Cleaning as you go is therefore not only a way to make tools last but above all insurance against damaging the work in progress.
