3M 7010326171 Abrasive Belt 48x6 Inch P240 Grit Ao Cloth

Product Description

The 3M 7010326171 is an aluminum oxide coated abrasive belt designed for metal deburring, general metalworking, and woodworking applications. Built on an X-weight cloth backing, it handles heavy sanding and grinding loads without tearing. The resin bond holds the abrasive mineral firmly under high heat and pressure conditions. P240 grit delivers a fine cut suited for finishing passes on metal substrates and wood surfaces. Licensed trades and production shops use this belt for wide belt, edge, and portable belt sanding operations where consistent stock removal and surface conditioning are required.

This belt is well suited for industrial and shop environments where metal parts require deburring, parting line removal, or surface prep before finishing. The tube-shaped band form fits inner and outer contours, making it useful on irregular profiles. It can be mounted on a rubber expander wheel attachment for use with a die grinder or rotary drill, extending its reach to tight or curved workpiece features. It is appropriate for both metal and wood substrates across a range of production and maintenance applications.
