which belt for hardened metal

[Fish30114]

I am looking to buy a few more belts for my 1x42 Burr King belt sander to tide me over til I can pull the trigger on a TW-90...So I am wanting advice on what belts to try, specifically I'm looking for advice on what belt to purchase for hogging metal on an already hardened blank.

Any input feedback is appreciated.

Whatever you can get in a ceramic belt. 36 or 50 grit works well. I'm not sure of your options on a 1x42 but ceramic is the way to go.

Thanks for the tip, Matt--I'll keep that in mind.
