3M 7010325861 Abrasive Belt 60x2 Inch 36 Grit

Product Description

The 3M 7010325861 is a coated abrasive belt engineered for demanding stock removal and metal finishing work. It uses a blend of ceramic abrasive grain and aluminum oxide that cuts faster and lasts longer than conventional aluminum oxide belts. The heavyweight polyester cloth backing handles high-pressure grinding without breaking down, and the belt runs equally well dry or with a cutting lubricant. A built-in grinding aid reduces heat generation at the workpiece, making this belt a practical choice for stainless steel and other heat-sensitive metals. Fabricators, weld-prep operators, and metalworking shops are the primary users.

This belt is sized at 60 inches long by 2 inches wide with a 36 grit rating, placing it in the coarse-cut range for aggressive material removal and weld blending. It performs in flat stock, pipe, and structural steel finishing applications where belt life and consistent cut rate directly affect throughput. The orange color identifies the 777F product line within the 3M abrasives range. It is suited to both manual belt grinders and fixed machine setups where sustained contact pressure is applied.

Key Features

• Ceramic and aluminum oxide grain blend delivers faster cut rates and longer belt life than straight aluminum oxide
• Heavyweight polyester cloth backing withstands high contact pressure in machine and hand-held applications
• Runs wet or dry, adding flexibility for different workpiece materials and finishing requirements
• Integrated grinding aid reduces heat buildup when grinding stainless steel and heat-sensitive alloys
• Durable resin bond resists heat deterioration to extend service life between belt changes
• 36 grit coarse cut supports aggressive stock removal and weld blending operations

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement or replenishment belt for belt grinders and finishing machines that accept a 60-inch by 2-inch abrasive belt configuration.

Installation Notes

Belt installation should be performed with the machine de-energized and the tension release disengaged. Verify belt tracking direction against the arrow marked on the belt backing before operating. Confirm the machine contact wheel or platen is sized for a 2-inch wide belt. Inspect belt seams and backing for damage before each use, and replace any belt showing delamination or fraying at the splice.
