Overview

The primary focus was to compare the performance of the PREDATOR belts to the current ceramic and zirconia alumina belts. The challenges that the manufacturer faced involved:

Application

Operators used 2″ x 72″ 36 grit PREDATOR belts to sand and finish more forged steel hammer heads efficiently than the current zirconia alumina and ceramic belts. The PREDATOR belt also completed each hammer head in a much faster speed.
