Norton Red Heat Sanding Screen, 16", 150 Grit (66261026297)

16" · 150 GRIT

Norton Red Heat screens put 100% ceramic alumina grain on a flexible screen back for 16-inch floor buffers. Norton says they combine the longest life with the most consistent cut and leave a finer scratch than silicon carbide, minimizing swirl marks and the risk of burnishing the wood. 150 grit is a finer screen, used to abrade between coats of finish or to prep an existing finish for a recoat.
