3M 7000118795 Abrasive Belt P180 Grit 48x6 Inch Ao Cloth

Product Description

The 3M 7000118795 is an aluminum oxide cloth abrasive belt designed for metal deburring, general metalworking, and woodworking applications. Built on an X-weight cloth backing, this belt handles heavy sanding and grinding without breaking down under pressure or heat. The resin bond system keeps the abrasive mineral locked in place during aggressive material removal. At P180 grit, it delivers a consistent scratch pattern suited for finishing passes on metal and surface prep on wood. Licensed HVAC, plumbing, and metalworking tradespeople reach for this belt when a controlled, repeatable cut is needed across a wide range of substrates.

This belt measures 48 inches in length and 6 inches in width, making it suitable for wide belt sanders, edge sanders, and portable belt sanding equipment. Its tube-shaped band profile conforms to inner and outer contours, which makes it effective for removing parting lines, surface imperfections, and burrs. It can also be mounted on a rubber expander wheel attachment for use with a die grinder or rotary drill, expanding its range of application in both shop and field environments.
