Disc Size
There are many different types of sanding discs available depending on the kind of work you need the belt sander to perform. For example, a resin fiber disc is suitable for grinding, deburring, and finishing metals, while you want a disc sander that can take flap discs for smoothing out welds and removing rust. If you mostly work on large wood pieces, then larger 8 inch  and 10 inch discs are the preferred option.

Belt Size
Apart from the disc, the belt size of a given belt disc sander is also quite important. This size is given as 36-inch x 4 inch or 48-inch x 6 inch depending on the model you get where a higher size offers more space for working with a belt sander.

There are several things to consider while using a belt and disc sander to complete the job safely. The first thing to consider is the eye protection which protects you when the wood stock kicks back or saw dust that flies off the surface.

Most of these machines produce high levels of noise and a continuous hum which can be uncomfortable and damaging to the ears. It is better to use hearing protection while operating a disc or belt sander.

Planning beforehand helps you place the wood in appropriate positions to work on it. It also helps you keep the fingers away from the sandpaper which may rip off the skin within an instant. If possible, start sanding with the grain as it helps to prevent the wood from skipping off the belt while in motion. And always sand in downward position and avoid upward movement for best control.
