Abranet ® Net sanding system for Dust Free Sanding
With Abranet®, Mirka has succeeded
with something where many others have
previously failed – to develop a completely
even sanding net. A sanding net with
thousands of holes provides a phenomenal
dust extraction. The maximum distance
from each sanding particle to the closest
dust extraction hole is 0.5 mm! 
Abranet’s
clever construction provides many
advantages. Because the dust is being
continuously sucked away, sanding is
virtually dust free. Tests have shown that the
dust release from Abranet® is only minuscule
when compared to the dust released from
traditional abrasives with dust extraction.
When the abrasive and the sanding surface
are constantly kept dust free, the lifespan of
the abrasive is extended. Since the abrasive
maintains its aggressive properties over
the entire surface, sanding becomes more
even and efficient. The sanding result will
also be better. Since it is always possible to
see what is being sanded, there will be a
completely different control over the work,
meaning that over-sanding, for example,
can be avoided.
Additionally, Abranet® will solve many
old dull problems, such as the formation
of so-called “dust pills” and clogging. Since
dust can no longer collect in lumps on the
sanding discs/strips to the same extent, there is
no longer a danger that sanded dust will
build up and create grooves on the sanding
surface, or fill up the disc/strip and so reduce its
sanding capacity.
No wonder everyone chooses Abranet®!
Sanding dust is a major health problem in many
sectors. Dust from fibre glass, carbon fibre,
aluminium and hardwood, for example, usually
contains harmful particles. Mirka offers a simple
but clever solution to the dust problem – Abranet®. Now
workers’ lungs can be protected from dangerous sanding
dust.
Abranet® also makes it easier and more fun to work.
Sanding without disturbing dust particles also
provides better control over the work. Moreover, the final
result will be better. You will get a cleaner surface and a
better surface finish.
One of Abranet’s many advantages is that the sanding
sheets or discs usually have a longer lifespan than
traditional abrasives.
Companies using Abranet® know that this translates
into clear savings, i.e. better profitability and
competitiveness.
Abranet® use has spread like wildfire from one industry to
another. At the same time, we have expanded the Abranet® family with new products and accessories.
Now, everyone can take full advantage of Abranet’s

Dust Extraction Tools and Equipment
Sanding and dust have always belonged together. But not any more – thanks to Abranet®, the New Mirka Compact Electric Random Orbital Sander and our Dust Extraction System. We do not just supply the abrasives for dust free operations but also a range of tools and dust extraction equipment. You can of course attach our tools to your own dust extraction equipment.
Wood and Construction Industry
Woodworking produces a lot of dust that can contain
hazardous particles.The latest research shows that sanding
harder wood is more dangerous than sanding softer wood.
When sanding furniture, kitchen and bathroom cupboards,
windows and doors, it is important to have good dust extraction, both for health reasons as well as for the final result. Naturally,
the best alternative is to change and begin using the Abranet® system, which is virtually dust free. Abranet® reduces the dust
load from dangerous particles on lungs, as well as provides
many other time and money savings.
A dust-free work environment ensures control of the
sanding work. When sanding, other work phases can be made
simultaneously in the same room. And of course there will be
less tidying up afterwards!
Abranet® is known for its long lifespan – which means that the
abrasive doesn’t have to be changed as often as before. Another
advantage is that Abranet® maintains its aggressive properties
much longer than traditional sanding materials.
