Sanding Screens - 9" x 11" Shaping Screens

A staple in every shaping bay, our high-quality Sanding Screens are the industry standard for precision rail shaping and fine-tuning foam contours. Unlike traditional sandpaper, the open-mesh design of these screens allows foam dust to pass through the abrasive, preventing "clogging" and ensuring a consistent, aggressive cut from start to finish.

Most commonly used for blending the deck into the rails and truing up the tuck, these 9" x 11" screens provide a unique tactile feel that helps a shaper maintain the board's flow and symmetry. They are highly flexible, allowing them to wrap perfectly around the curves of a rail without creating flat spots or "dig-ins." Proudly made in the USA, these screens are durable enough to be tapped out and reused across multiple builds.

Key Features:

• Clog-Resistant Mesh: Open-weave design allows foam dust to clear instantly for a cleaner cut.
• Rail Shaping Essential: The preferred tool for blending rails and finishing complex bottom contours.
• Dual-Sided Use: Abrasive on both sides for double the lifespan of standard sandpaper.
• High Flexibility: Easily contours to any curve or concave on a surfboard blank.

Available Grits:

• 80 Grit: Ideal for rapid rail building and truing outlines.
• 120 Grit: Perfect for blending deck-to-rail transitions and smoothing out plane marks.
• 180 Grit: Used for final foam refinement and preparing the blank for glassing.

Pro Tip: For the cleanest rails, use the screen with long, continuous strokes. If the screen gets loaded with dust, simply tap it against your shaping rack to clear the mesh and restore its cutting power.
