🔧 When you’re working on intricate wood carvings, auto paint correction, or metal restoration, standard sandpaper often tears or clogs just when the finish matters most. The 996A wet and dry sandpaper discs from GooBetter Fastener solve that with a flexible, waterproof design and a full 60–10,000 grit range. Available in three of the most popular sizes — 1" (25mm), 2" (50mm), and 3" (75mm) — these discs fit detail sanders, mini orbitals, and hand pads perfectly. The premium silicon carbide grain on tough latex paper delivers fast cutting, resists loading, and leaves a consistent scratch pattern on wood, metal, automotive clear coats, jewelry, and composites. Whether you’re sanding wet to keep dust down or going dry for quick shaping, the strong hook & loop backing keeps the disc securely in place.

“996A” is the manufacturer’s model designation for these heavy‑duty wet/dry sandpaper discs. They differ from basic sandpapers by using a waterproof latex paper base and a high‑grade silicon carbide grain that cuts faster and lasts longer, especially when used wet.
These are designed for small‑format backing pads. They will fit any sander with a 1″, 2″, or 3″ hook & loop backing plate. They are not meant to directly replace a full‑size 5″ disc; however, many detail and mini orbital sanders accept these exact sizes. Always measure your backing pad before ordering.
For a true mirror finish, it’s best to step up through the grits. After 3000 grit, use 5000 or 7000 grit to remove ultra‑fine scratches, then finish with 10000 grit if you want an almost polished surface before buffing. This progressive approach ensures no visible sanding marks remain under the wax or coating.
Use them wet whenever possible. Water carries away resin dust and wood fibers, keeping the grit exposed. If you must dry sand, use a gentle touch and clean the disc periodically with a rubber cleaning stick or compressed air. The 996A’s open‑coat design already resists loading better than many standard papers.
