Sanding Bands

Professional sanding bands in coarse (#80), medium (#150), and fine (#240) grits — in 50, 90, 100, and 500-piece formats — available through our nail supply warehouse in Carol Stream near Chicago.

The right sanding band makes the difference between a clean, efficient product removal and a band that clogs, slips, or wears out before the job is done. This collection covers the full range of professional sanding bands and mandrels for nail drills — from standard and mini sizes to long mini formats — plus electric callus remover sanding caps in three head sizes and three grits. Whether you're a salon owner stocking multiple stations, a nail technician who goes through bands at volume, or a DIY user building a reliable e-file kit, every option here is built for professional use and available in the pack sizes that match how you work.

What's In This Collection

Frequently Asked Questions

• What grit sanding band should I use for acrylic or gel removal?
  Coarse grit (#80) is the professional standard for breaking down and removing acrylic, gel, and dip powder enhancements efficiently. Medium grit (#150) is used for shaping and refining after bulk removal. Fine grit (#240) is used for surface prep and finishing — gentle enough for natural nail plate work without causing thinning.
• What is the difference between standard, mini, and long mini sanding bands?
  Standard bands cover the widest surface area and are used for most product removal and shaping work. Mini bands are designed for smaller nail plates or precision work in tight areas. Long mini bands offer more surface coverage than a standard mini without the full width of a standard band — useful for technicians who need a middle-ground option for specific nail shapes or service types.
• Are MX mandrels compatible with standard nail drills?
  Yes. All MX mandrels in this collection — Platinum and Original series in Standard, Mini, and Long Mini sizes — use a 3/32" shank, which is compatible with most professional nail drill handpieces.
• What are the ProTool electric callus remover sanding caps used for?
  The ProTool sanding caps are designed for use with electric callus remover machines. They are available in three head sizes (¢10 x 15mm, ¢13 x 19mm, ¢16 x 26mm) and three grits (Coarse, Medium, Fine) — for salons that use electric callus remover machines as part of their pedicure service workflow. Rubber mandrels for each head size are also available separately.
