3M 7010326185 Abrasive Belt 60x1.5 Inch 36 Grit Aluminum Oxide

Product Description

The 3M 7010326185 is an aluminum oxide cloth abrasive belt designed for metal deburring, general metalworking, and woodworking surface preparation. Measuring 60 inches in length and 1.5 inches in width with a 36-grit cut, this belt is built on an X-weight cloth backing that handles heavy sanding and grinding loads. The resin bond system resists high heat and pressure, making it suitable for aggressive stock removal on metal and wood substrates. Weighing 0.25 pounds, it is a practical shop consumable for tradespeople and fabricators who need consistent cut performance across multiple material types.

This belt is suited for wide belt, edge, and portable belt sanding applications on metal and wood. Its tube-shaped band profile fits inner and outer contours, making it effective for removing parting lines, surface imperfections, and burrs from machined or cast metal components. The belt is also compatible with rubber expander wheel attachments used with die grinders or rotary drills, expanding its range of use in production and maintenance settings. Residential fabricators, metalworking shops, and maintenance technicians are the primary installers and users of this consumable.
