3M 7010325866 Abrasive Belt 80 Grit 2x132 in Ceramic

Product Description

The 3M 7010325866 is a coated abrasive belt designed for aggressive material removal on metal, wood, and composite surfaces. Part of the 777F series, it measures 2 inches wide by 132 inches long and cuts with ceramic aluminum oxide abrasive grain at 80 grit, a medium grade suited for stock removal, weld blending, and surface conditioning. The closed-coat construction keeps abrasive density high across the full belt face, maximizing contact and cut rate. The polyester cloth backing with a YF weight rating handles both wet and dry operation, resisting stretch and heat buildup during extended runs. Fabricators, metalworkers, and finishing technicians are the typical users.

This belt fits belt grinders and finishing machines configured for a 2-inch by 132-inch belt path, common in pipe fabrication, structural steel work, and industrial maintenance shops. The 80-grit ceramic grain makes it well suited for initial grinding passes on stainless steel, carbon steel, and other hard alloys where faster cut rates are needed before moving to finer grits. Wet or dry operation gives the user flexibility depending on the application and machine setup.

Key Features

• Ceramic aluminum oxide grain delivers faster cut rates and longer service life compared to conventional aluminum oxide on hard metals
• Closed-coat construction maximizes abrasive coverage for consistent stock removal
• Polyester cloth backing with YF weight rating resists stretch, tearing, and heat distortion
• Wet and dry operation compatible
• 80 grit medium grade balances cut rate with surface finish quality
• 777F series construction for demanding industrial grinding and finishing applications

Compatibility

Designed for use on belt grinders and power finishing machines that accept a 2-inch by 132-inch abrasive belt. Suitable for ferrous and non-ferrous metals, wood, and composites.

Installation Notes

A licensed or qualified machine operator should confirm belt tracking and tension before starting the machine. Power down and lock out the grinder before mounting or removing any abrasive belt. Inspect the belt for tears, edge damage, or delamination before each use and do not run a damaged belt. Always verify the machine is rated for the belt speed before operation, as exceeding the rated surface feet per minute can cause belt failure.
