3M 7010309383 Abrasive Belt 80 Grit 24x3/4 Inch

Product Description

The 3M 7010309383 is a coated abrasive belt designed for stock removal and metal finishing on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. It uses a blend of 3M Ceramic Abrasive Grain and aluminum oxide, which cuts faster and lasts longer than conventional aluminum oxide belts. The heavyweight polyester cloth backing handles high-pressure grinding applications without breaking down under load. A built-in grinding aid reduces heat buildup, making it suitable for stainless steel and other heat-sensitive metals. The belt can be run dry or with a lubricant, depending on the application. Licensed tradespeople and metalworking shops use this belt in production grinding, weld blending, and surface preparation work.

This belt fits standard 24-inch by 3/4-inch belt grinder and file belt configurations. The 80-grit rating makes it appropriate for intermediate stock removal and surface finishing where a moderate cut rate and controlled surface finish are needed. It is used in metal fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, and manufacturing environments where consistent performance across high belt-change cycles is required. The durable resin bond resists heat deterioration, extending service life compared to standard abrasive belts.

Key Features

• Ceramic and aluminum oxide grain blend for faster cutting and longer belt life than standard aluminum oxide

Compatibility

Designed for use on belt grinders and file belt machines accepting 24-inch by 3/4-inch coated abrasive belts. Suitable for grinding, blending, and finishing operations on stainless steel, carbon steel, and other metals.

Installation Notes

Install on compatible belt grinder or file belt machine with the arrow on the belt backing oriented in the direction of travel before mounting. Power down and lock out the machine before changing belts. Inspect the contact wheel and platen for wear before installing a new belt. Follow the machine manufacturer guidelines and applicable shop safety standards when operating grinding equipment.
