3M 7000119044 Abrasive Belt 120 Grit 6x48 Aluminum Oxide

Product Description

The 3M 7000119044 is a coated abrasive belt designed for dry stock removal and surface finishing on stationary belt sanders and grinders. Built on the 340D series platform, it uses aluminum oxide as the abrasive mineral, which delivers consistent cut and long service life across steel, stainless, non-ferrous metals, wood, and composite materials. The belt measures 6 inches wide by 48 inches long and runs at 120 grit, placing it in the fine grade range for work requiring controlled material removal without aggressive surface scarring. The open coat density reduces loading on softer or resinous materials, keeping the belt cutting freely through the job.

This belt is suited for metal fabrication shops, woodworking operations, maintenance and repair environments, and general industrial applications where a 6 by 48 inch belt grinder or sander is in use. It performs well in finish grinding passes on structural steel, deburring operations on fabricated parts, and surface preparation before coating or inspection. Dry operation only — no water or cutting fluid should be used with this belt.

Key Features

• Aluminum oxide abrasive mineral for consistent cut on metal, wood, and composites
• 120 grit fine grade for controlled stock removal and surface finishing
• Open coat density reduces clogging on resinous or softer workpieces
• X-weight cloth backing provides durability and flexibility under load
• 340D series construction — coated abrasive format for belt sander and grinder use
• Dry operation design — compatible with standard belt grinding and sanding equipment

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit replacement for 6 by 48 inch abrasive belt positions on stationary belt sanders, combination sander-grinders, and industrial belt grinding machines configured for that belt size.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by maintenance technicians, metalworkers, or machine operators following the equipment manufacturer's belt change procedure. Power down and lock out the machine before removing the worn belt or installing a new one. Confirm belt tension and tracking alignment after installation and before resuming operation. Inspect the belt and platen contact surface for wear or damage at each change interval.
