Medium Belts are white internally and a sold in pairs. They are 400 grit, being more aggressive, they are designed to profile knives more quickly than the fine belts. These belts cut cold and are extremely hard wearing and long lasting. They are made from aluminium-oxide.

Many individuals and organisations own Nirey electric knife sharpeners to keep their knives safe, maintaining the sharp edge and prolonging the life of their knives.
Typical use of replacement abrasive belts with varying grit sizes comes down to the relative smoothness of the finish you will achieve on the knife edge. The factors that will affect the finish you will achieve on your knife relate to:
- the shape and diameter of the abrasive particles on each belt
- the hardness of the grit praticles
- whether the grit particles can be crushed or “fractured” into smaller ones and
- the chemical composition of the abrasive particles – for example aluminium-oxide.
