[QUOTE="specweldtom, post: 444323, member: 2580"] I've got a couple of dozen never used 2" x 72" sanding belts that come apart at the splice almost as soon as I put them on. They are probably about 10 yrs old and the adhesive that is used on the splice tape is letting go. If I don't get out of the way immediately when they start making a very light tapping noise, they then slap the crap out of me when they come apart. It happens too quick to turn the belt grinder off. Distracting. Does anyone know if, or how, the splices can be glued back together? The belts themselves and the abrasives are still like brand new. Only the splices fail. I'm going to try super glue, unless someone knows something better. At an average of $7 each, it's hard to give up on them. Thanks for any help or ideas. My hands and arms are taking a beating. Got slapped in the face once. Started using a face shield (like I should have been) after that. Tom [/QUOTE]
