3M 7010308481 Abrasive Belt 36 Grit 60x2.5 Inch Green

Product Description

The 3M 7010308481 is an alumina zirconia coated abrasive belt designed for high-production grinding, blending, and finishing applications. The 577F series uses alumina zirconia mineral combined with a grinding aid to deliver faster cutting rates and longer belt life compared to standard aluminum oxide belts. The heavy polyester cloth backing is water-resistant and built to handle high-pressure contact and edge work without breaking down. This belt measures 60 inches in length and 2.5 inches in width, runs at 36 grit, and is colored green for easy grit identification on the shop floor.

This belt is suited for metalworking environments where heat buildup is a concern, including work on aluminum, stainless steel, and other heat-sensitive metals. It performs well in both wet and dry conditions due to its water-resistant backing. Typical applications include weld blending, deburring, pipe finishing, and aggressive stock removal on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. It is used by metal fabricators, welders, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians running contact wheel or platen-style belt grinders.

Key Features

• Alumina zirconia mineral with grinding aid cuts faster and lasts longer than aluminum oxide
• Heavy polyester cloth backing resists water and handles high-pressure and edge grinding applications
• Runs cooler than conventional abrasives, reducing heat damage on aluminum and stainless steel
• 36 grit for aggressive stock removal and fast cutting
• Green color coding allows quick grit identification in multi-grit shop environments
• Versatile grain cuts effectively across a range of metal and hard substrates

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit replacement for 60-inch by 2.5-inch abrasive belt applications on standard contact wheel and platen belt grinders used in metal fabrication and finishing operations.

Installation Notes

Belt installation should be performed by qualified personnel with the grinder powered off and locked out per OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Verify belt tracking and tension before resuming operation. Confirm the grinder is rated for the belt dimensions and maximum operating speed before mounting. Inspect the belt for tears or edge damage before each use and replace if compromised.
