Q:Are these belts are overlapping seam, or butt-seam?
by|Aug 21, 2019
6 Answers
Answer This Question

A:  I purchased 36, 50, 80, and 120 grit belts and all are butt-seam with the seam at a diagonal to the width of the belt and with a plastic splice on the inside of the belt. The splice is about ¾" wide.

    A:  Butt seamed and they work well. Never failed or split.

    by|Aug 24, 2019

    A:  Yes they are overlapping

    by|May 5, 2020

      A:  Hi Tiger! Yes, the belt has a butt seam. Thanks for the great question!

      by|Aug 4, 2021

        A:  Butt seamed and they work great.

        by|Nov 10, 2019

        A:  They are butt-seamed which appear to be both glued and taped on an angle. I’ve never had one break and I’ve been using them for going on three years.

        Q:Can these belts be used for wet sanding on concrete?
        by|Jul 31, 2017

        Answer This Question

        A:  Hello Stretch, thank you for your question and interest in Diablo accessories. The Diablo sanding belts can be used for concrete sanding wet. However, I would recommend using a diamond cup wheel or a Diamond floor sanding pad that is rentable through Home Depots rental department. These items would work better and faster. Hope this helps. Thanks.

        by|Aug 9, 2017

          A:  These are primarily used for wood not concrete and used dry.

            A:  If it takes this size

            by|Dec 6, 2016

            A:  The Diablo 3” x 18” Sanding Belts will fit any 3” x 18” Belt Sanding tool regardless of manufacture. Without knowing the exact model of the Skil Sander being referencing, it is hard to be 100%, but if it is a 3” x 18” Belt Sander, the Diablo Sanding Belt will fit.

            by|Apr 26, 2019

              A:  I you have a 3" x 18" then it would work

                A:  Belt sanders come in various sizes so you should check your sander's manual for the belt size you need. Yes, a belt of the correct size should work on any model sander that takes that size.

                    Belts lasted 1 min. before coming apart
                    I was very surprised because Diablo is usually a pretty good brand name with some quality. In all fairness I will say that I have had the belts for approximately 3-6 months on a shelf in my workshop. But I went through 4 belts in last than 5 minutes with each belt coming unglued. I have to say that I am disappointed, guess it’s time to try another brand.

                      Not worth a crap...do not buy!
                      Bought the 5 pack of 80 grit to do some sanding on a couple 4x4 posts. I went through the entire pack before even finishing because the belts kept breaking.

                        Repeated seam failures
                        Think the longest I could get one to last was about 3 minutes. these simply kept coming apart at the seams.

                          Purchased DIABLO 3 X 18 in. 80-Grit. Sanding Belt to help Grandson Joshua build a porch swing. The sanding belt is tough and durable. Only one belt was necessary for the entire project. The belt cleaned up with a brush and a little water and is ready for another project. Home Depot had all the wood and hardware we needed to complete our Grandfather and Grandson project. A great experience for both of us.

                          The sandpaper was what I expected. It worked well for me on our new battery operated sander.

                          Fails at Joint
                          While sanding my new deck before staining, i went through 8-9 of these belts. All failed at the joint, some within minutes. Very frustrating. Up until they failed, they did a nice job actually sanding, but i can't rexommend.
