The secret to dust-free sanding

Abranet is Mirka’s award-winning mesh abrasive system designed for dust-free sanding. Unlike traditional sandpaper that uses a paper backing, Abranet features a fine net structure that allows air and dust to pass freely through thousands of tiny holes — eliminating the need to align with specific vacuum holes. It’s suitable for all wood types and finishes, available in a wide grit range from P80 to P1000, and lasts up to four times longer than conventional sandpaper. Abranet works with any vacuum-assisted sander, making it ideal for woodworking, furniture making, cabinetry, and home finishing.

Woodworkers appreciate Abranet for its dust-free performance — the mesh design allows continuous dust extraction, keeping the work area cleaner and the air safer to breathe. Because dust doesn’t clog the abrasive surface, the cut remains sharper for longer, resulting in a smoother, more consistent finish. Its extended lifespan means fewer disc changes and lower overall costs, while compatibility with most orbital sanders and hand blocks adds to its convenience. Beyond performance, Abranet also contributes to a healthier workspace by reducing airborne dust and cleanup time.

To get the most from Abranet, pair it with a Mirka DEROS or DEOS sander and a dust-extraction unit for truly dust-free sanding. Even when used with other vacuum-compatible sanders, you’ll notice a significant reduction in airborne dust and surface contamination.
