It uses a blend of ceramic abrasive grain and aluminum oxide, a combination that cuts faster and lasts longer than standard aluminum oxide belts. The heavyweight polyester backing handles high-pressure grinding without breaking down, and the belt runs effectively both dry and with lubricant. A built-in grinding aid reduces heat buildup during use, making this belt well suited for heat-sensitive metals including stainless steel. Fabricators, weld shops, and metal finishing technicians are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis belt is sized at 15.5 inches in length and 3.5 inches in width with a 36-grit cut, making it appropriate for aggressive material removal on metal workpieces. The resin bond resists heat deterioration, extending useful belt life and reducing the frequency of changeovers. It performs in both wet and dry setups, giving technicians flexibility across different grinding and finishing workflows in fabrication and industrial maintenance environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCeramic and aluminum oxide grain blend for faster cutting and longer belt life than traditional aluminum oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavyweight polyester backing supports high-pressure applications without backing failure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in grinding aid reduces heat buildup, protecting heat-sensitive metals during stock removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDurable resin bond resists heat deterioration to extend service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRuns wet or dry for flexible use across different finishing setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e36-grit cut suited for aggressive stock removal and initial metal finishing passes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a coated abrasive replacement belt for belt grinders and finishing machines that accept a 15.5 x 3.5 inch belt configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eBelt installation should be performed with the machine powered off and isolated from its power source. Confirm belt tracking direction arrows align with the machine's drive direction before startup. Inspect the contact wheel or platen for wear before mounting a new belt. Follow the equipment manufacturer's guidelines and applicable ANSI abrasive safety standards during installation and operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 36\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBelt Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBelt Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbrasive Grain\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ceramic Aluminum Oxide Blend\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBacking\u003c\/strong\u003e: Heavyweight Polyester Cloth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBond Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Resin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Coated, Dry or Wet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.73 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7000118434\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"3M","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51343968534834,"sku":"7000118434","price":951.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310534631.jpg?v=1782026127","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/3m-7000118434-coated-abrasive-belt-36-grit-15-5x3-5-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
