3M 7010298947 Cloth Band 341D 1.5x1 in 36 Grit X-weight

Product Description

The 3M 7010298947 is an aluminum oxide cloth band in the 341D series, designed for aggressive stock removal on metal and wood surfaces. Built on an X-weight cloth backing, this band delivers the durability needed for demanding grinding and finishing applications. The closed-coat construction maximizes abrasive coverage across the full belt surface, while resin bonding adds heat resistance during extended use. At 36 grit, it is suited for coarse material removal rather than fine finishing. Licensed tradespeople and shop technicians use this band where consistent cut rate and backing integrity are required.

This cloth band is used in metalworking and woodworking environments, particularly where harder wood species or ferrous and non-ferrous metals require a tough, heat-resistant abrasive. It fits 1.5 inches by 1 inches band configurations on compatible bench-top or portable sanding and grinding equipment. The 36 grit rating makes it most effective in early-stage material removal, shaping, and weld blending operations before finer grits are applied.

Key Features

• Aluminum oxide abrasive mineral for consistent cut on metal and hardwood
• Closed-coat construction for maximum abrasive density across the band surface
• X-weight cloth backing provides added durability and tear resistance under load
• Resin bond system resists heat buildup during prolonged grinding or sanding cycles
• 36 grit for coarse stock removal, shaping, and weld blending
• General-purpose design suitable for both metalworking and woodworking applications

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement-style cloth band for belt grinders and sanding machines that accept a 1.5 inches by 1 inches band configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified shop technicians or abrasive equipment operators. Power down and disconnect the machine from its power source before mounting or removing any abrasive band. Verify the band tracking and tension adjustment on the equipment before resuming operation. Inspect the band for cracks, tears, or separation at the splice before each use and discard any damaged band immediately.
