3M 7000118464 Abrasive Belt 48x2 in P120 Ceramic

Product Description

The 3M 7000118464 is a coated abrasive belt designed for high-demand stock removal and metal finishing applications. It combines ceramic abrasive grain with aluminum oxide on a heavyweight polyester cloth backing, producing faster cut rates and longer belt life compared to standard aluminum oxide belts. At P120 grit, it delivers a consistent finish suitable for ferrous and non-ferrous metals. A built-in grinding aid controls heat buildup at the contact point, making this belt well suited for heat-sensitive metals such as stainless steel. Licensed HVAC, fabrication, and metal finishing shops use this belt in production grinding and surface prep workflows.

This belt is sized at 48 inches long by 2 inches wide, fitting standard bench and backstand belt grinders configured for that dimension. It is suited for both wet and dry operation, giving technicians and fabricators flexibility when working with lubricants or coolants. Typical applications include weld blending, deburring, and surface conditioning on metal components in light manufacturing, maintenance, and trade fabrication environments.

Key Features

• Ceramic and aluminum oxide grain blend cuts faster and outlasts traditional aluminum oxide belts
• P120 grit delivers controlled stock removal with a consistent surface finish
• Heavyweight polyester cloth backing handles high-pressure contact without backing failure
• Grinding aid reduces heat generation, extending belt life on stainless steel and heat-sensitive alloys
• Durable resin bond resists heat deterioration to maintain cutting performance over longer run times
• Runs wet or dry, compatible with water-based and oil-based lubricants

Compatibility

Designed for use on standard belt grinders and backsands configured for a 48 inch by 2 inch belt. Suitable for ferrous and non-ferrous metal grinding, weld blending, and surface conditioning applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified operator following the grinder manufacturer's guidelines. Power down and lock out the grinder before mounting or removing the belt. Confirm belt tracking and tension before resuming operation. Inspect the belt for tears or edge damage prior to each use, and do not exceed the maximum operating speed rated for the grinder.
