Thanks to advanced abrasive technology, our newest ceramic material delivers maximum cut rate, longevity, and cooler grinding temps. Ideal for high pressure grinding, EdgeCore ceramic micro-fractures during use, continuously revealing fresh abrasive grain. Its versatility makes it a great choice for knife makers and blacksmiths. These belts work great for stock removal, blade profiling, and blade sharpening. EdgeCore ceramic belts are also beneficial for welders, or anyone working with metals.

Why Are Ceramic Belts The Best Belts For Knife Making?

Years ago, it used to be that zirconia was the best grain type for knife making. That is no longer the case. Ceramic belts cut faster than zirconia belts and last longer as well. Red Label’s Edgecore Ceramic belts take the ceramic advantage even further by evenly microfracturing during use to mitigate heat (even at high grinding speeds). Aluminum oxide and zirconia belts are still used for knife making today, but you’ll get better performance and value out of ceramic belts. No other belt will profile, bevel grind, edge sand, or sharpen better. 

Why Use 2” x 82” Sanding Belts?

If you already own a 2” x 82” belt grinder, you’d choose a 2” x 82” belt, because that’s the size that would fit your grinder. However, if you’re new to knife making and shopping for both a new grinder and belts to accompany the grinder, you may be curious to know why you might choose a 2” x 82” grinder. At Red Label Abrasives, we don’t particularly endorse any specific size of grinder. Great knives could come from a wide array of different grinders. Nevertheless, the great thing about 2” x 82” grinders is that they strike a nice balance between being large enough for intense grinding and stock removal while remaining small enough to easily perform fine, detail work. The 82” length also helps to reduce wear and heat build-up that smaller belts experience. 2x82 inch grinders also have more accessories available (rotary platens, surface grinding attachments, wheel attachments, etc.). It is for these reasons that 2x82 inch grinders and belts are the most common size used for knife making. 

What Grinders Will These Belts Fit? 

Our 2x82 ceramic belts will fit any 2x82 belt grinder including the Vevor 1500W 2HP Belt Sander Grinder, and Vevor 2HP Belt Grinder Constant Speed 2 x 82 Inch Belt Disc Sander.
