3M 7010307968 Aluminum Oxide Cloth Belt 50 Grit 60x2 in

Product Description

The 3M 7010307968 is an aluminum oxide coated cloth sanding belt designed for metal deburring, general metalworking, and woodworking applications. Built on an X-weight cloth backing, this belt handles heavy sanding and grinding loads without breaking down under high heat or pressure. The resin bond keeps the abrasive mineral firmly in place during aggressive stock removal. At 60 inches long and 2 inches wide with a 50 grit designation, it suits a range of portable and stationary belt sanding setups. Licensed tradespeople and shop technicians working metal or wood surfaces reach for this belt when consistent, fast-cutting performance is the priority.

This belt is suited for wide belt sanding machines, edge sanders, and portable belt sanders. Its tube-shaped band profile also fits rubber expander wheel attachments, making it compatible with die grinders and rotary drills for working inner and outer contours. Typical applications include removing parting lines and casting imperfections from metal parts, deburring machined components, and surface conditioning wood stock. It performs across metal substrates and wood, making it a versatile consumable in fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, and woodworking operations.
