Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of dispensing abrasive materials and to an abrasive material, such as a sheet or disc. An abrasive material means a flexibly bendable abrasive sheet product, one side of which is provided with an abrasive agent with a varying grit size. A plural number of abrasive materials are preferably arranged in a bundle in a dispenser means so that the sides of the abrasive materials provided with an abrasive agent face the same direction. The object of the present invention is to release the abrasive material from the dispenser means in a simpler way, simultaneously preventing any protective coverings on the abrasive material from being detached and spread about the working space. Such tabs are arranged on the back side of the abrasive material, the tabs being interconnected. When the abrasive materials of the invention are removed from the dispenser means, the tabs still remain attached to each other.

Abstract: Package of preferably self-adhesive abrasive material (1), comprising circular disks or sheets, which are attached to each other to make a connected unit, which is folded together to make a bundle (3) so that all the abrasive material sheets or disks (1) in the bundle (3) are placed so that their face (1a) provided with abrasive material is facing upwards. The invention is characterized in that the abrasive material sheets or discs (1) are attached to each other by means of a continuous carrying band (2) passed along one side of the bundle (3) and in loops in between each sheet or disc of abrasive material (1), the upper portion (2a) of each loop being fixed to the side (1b) free of abrasive material of the sheet or disk of abrasive material (1) placed above, and the lower portion (2b) of each loop lying free between the upper portion (2a) of the loop and the abrasive-material-coated face (1a) of the sheet or disc of abrasive material placed underneath.
