Key Features
Aluminum Oxide CutThe abrasive grain is built for longer life and higher removal rates, so you spend more time sanding and less time swapping out worn paper. PSA Roll ConvenienceThis Porter Cable adhesive-backed sanding roll sticks securely without slipping, which matters when you need clean, consistent contact across the work surface. Resists Heat Load-UpResin coating helps the abrasive hold up against heat and humidity, while the anti-clog coating helps reduce loading during longer sanding passes.
Overview
The Porter Cable 740002201 4-1/2 in. x 10 yd. 220 grit Aluminum Oxide PSA Roll is a pressure-sensitive adhesive sanding roll for users who want to cut abrasive strips to size instead of being locked into pre-cut sheets. This is an adhesive-backed sanding roll designed for finish sanding, surface prep, and light stock removal on compatible sanding pads, blocks, and shop setups that accept PSA abrasives. Model Number: 740002201.
The big value here is flexibility. A 10 yard roll gives you plenty of material for repeated pad changes, custom sizes, and oddball applications where standard sheets are wasteful. The 220 grit rating puts this roll in the very fine range, which makes it a practical choice for smoothing surfaces, blending between coats, and doing final prep work before finish.
Porter Cable uses durable aluminum oxide grain here, and that matters because aluminum oxide is a proven abrasive for general sanding work across wood, filler, paint prep, and similar shop tasks. It is built for longer disc life and higher removal rates than bargain paper that wears out too fast. If you sand often, that translates into fewer interruptions and more consistent surface quality.
The resin coating is there for a reason too. Heat and humidity are what shorten the life of a lot of abrasives, especially when you are doing repeated passes or working in a garage or jobsite environment that is not climate controlled. A resin-coated abrasive handles those conditions better and keeps the backing and grain working longer.
The pressure-sensitive adhesive backing is what makes this roll especially useful for sanders or pads designed around PSA paper. Once applied, it holds securely without slipping, which helps maintain even contact and cleaner scratch patterns. Tool Nut also lists an anti-clog coating that resists loading, which is worth having when fine grit paper starts packing up with dust.
This roll makes the most sense for woodworkers, finish carpenters, cabinet installers, painters doing prep, and serious DIY users who want clean control over their sanding setup. If you need a very fine abrasive roll you can cut exactly to length, the Porter Cable 740002201 4-1/2 in. x 10 yd. 220 grit Aluminum Oxide PSA Roll is a straightforward, useful shop consumable that solves a real problem without overcomplicating it.

Cut only the strip you need right before use. That keeps the PSA backing clean, helps the adhesive grab better, and wastes less abrasive when you are setting up several different pad sizes.
