3M 7000120726 Abrasive Belt 6x48 in Aluminum Oxide Very Fine

Product Description

The 3M 7000120726 is a non-woven aluminum oxide abrasive belt engineered for fine surface finishing and blending applications. Measuring 6 inches wide by 48 inches long, it belongs to the SC-BS series and is rated Very Fine grade. The non-woven construction conforms to irregular surfaces and delivers consistent scratch patterns, making it a reliable choice for metal finishing, deburring, and surface preparation work. The scrim backing provides dimensional stability under load while allowing the belt to flex without tearing. Licensed tradespeople and fabrication shop technicians reach for this belt when a controlled, light-cut finish is the goal.

This belt suits both wet and dry operation, giving technicians flexibility across different finishing environments and workpiece materials. Common applications include stainless steel blending, aluminum surface prep, and light deburring on fabricated components. The Very Fine grade makes it appropriate for final-pass conditioning rather than heavy stock removal. It fits standard 6 inch by 48 inch belt grinders and finishing machines found in metal fabrication shops, HVAC duct fabrication, plumbing fixture finishing, and light manufacturing settings.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by the machine operator or maintenance technician. Power down and lock out the belt finishing machine before changing belts. Confirm the belt tracking direction arrow aligns with machine rotation before starting. Inspect the platen and contact wheel for wear before mounting a fresh belt, as surface irregularities can cause premature belt failure.
