Permagrit tools include needle files and handles, sanding blocks, hand tools, and cutting discs. These tools are
designed to work with woods, glass fiber, carbon fiber, kevlar, acrylics, perspex, lexon, plexiglass, plastics, stone,
polystyrene foams, ceramics, and more. Needle files are extremely versitile and popular for detail work. They
are available in two sizes: 18cm and 14cm. The needles are packaged in a set of five popular shapes: flat, round,
square, triangle, and half round. Unlike conventional files, they will cut in any direction and remove material much
quicker. They do not clog easily and are available in medium 280 grit.
Permagrit sanding blocks are made of extruded, anodised aluminum and are user friendly. The 32mm (1.25")
radius curve is covered on the external and internal radius with Tungsten Carbide abrasive sheets. The contour
blocks come in either the coarse (180UK/60US grit approx.) or fine (320UK/120US grit approx.). The benefits of
sanding blocks: (1) shapes and sands curves, grooves, etc. quickly and easily; (2) great for fillets, leading edges,
under cambers, etc.; (3) extremely tough and will not wear out like normal sandpaper; (4) will last for years without
having to change the sheets; (5) does not clog easily (brush or knock out); and (6) easy to remove glues, resins,
paint, epoxy, and much more with paint remover. Prices range from $24.25 to 39.95 each.
The hand tool sets come with eight tools in a velcro fastening tool roll. The sets are available in course (180) and
fine (320) grades. The variety of sections and sizes in these sets covers most tasks that involve sanding and
shaping. Extremely strong, robust and simple to use. Each set sells for $74.95.
Permagrit cutting discs are made from mild steel with the tungsten grit welded to the edges. They will not break
and can cut through stainless steel, spring steel, as well as fiberglass and plastics. Each comes with a stainless
steel 3mm arbor, locking washer and M3 nut. The discs come in two sizes: 19mm diameter and 32mm diameter
discs. The 19mm disc sells for $11.95 and the 32mm disc sells for $12.95.
