3M 7000118667 Abrasive Belt 60x19 Inch Aluminum Oxide

Product Description

The 3M 7000118667 is a Trizact 253FA abrasive belt designed for flat finishing and centerless grinding applications. It uses microreplicated aluminum oxide mineral bonded with resin to an XF-weight polyester cloth backing that is both waterproof and durable. The microreplication technology produces a consistent, engineered abrasive surface that reduces the risk of uneven finishes and extends belt life compared to conventional coated abrasives. At 60 inches long and 19 inches wide, this belt suits industrial-scale finishing equipment. Licensed metalworking professionals and fabrication shop technicians are the primary installers and end users.

This belt is engineered for wet intermediate and fine finishing work on a range of metals. Suitable substrates include stainless steel, carbon steel, aluminum, nickel alloys, cobalt steel, copper, and brass. The XF-weight polyester cloth backing provides enough rigidity for flat-stock passes while retaining the conformability needed for irregular or contoured profiles. It is well-suited to centerless belt grinder setups and wide-platen finishing machines commonly found in metal fabrication and tube-mill environments.

Key Features

• Microreplicated aluminum oxide mineral delivers consistent cut rate and reduces risk of uneven finishes
• XF-weight waterproof polyester cloth backing withstands wet finishing conditions and rugged use
• Designed for wet intermediate and fine finishing stages in metalworking operations
• Compatible with stainless steel, carbon steel, aluminum, nickel alloys, cobalt steel, copper, and brass
• 60 inch length and 19 inch width suits wide-platen and centerless belt finishing equipment

Compatibility

Designed for use on flat finishing and centerless abrasive belt machines processing metal substrates including stainless steel, carbon steel, aluminum, nickel alloys, cobalt steel, copper, and brass. Verify machine belt-path dimensions and splice type requirements before ordering.

Installation Notes

Belt installation and tensioning should be performed by qualified metalworking equipment operators following machine manufacturer guidelines. Power down and de-energize the machine completely before changing belts. Inspect the contact wheel, platen, and belt-tracking components for wear before mounting a new belt. Always confirm belt direction-of-travel arrow aligns with machine rotation before startup.
