3M 7010326196 Cloth Sanding Belt 80 Grit 168x3 Inch

Product Description

The 3M 7010326196 is an aluminum oxide cloth abrasive belt designed for metal deburring, general metalworking, and woodworking applications. The 341D series belt measures 168 inches long and 3 inches wide, backed by X-weight cloth that handles heavy sanding and grinding loads. The resin bond system resists high heat and pressure, keeping the abrasive mineral in place during aggressive stock removal. At 80 grit, it cuts fast across a range of metal and wood substrates, making it a reliable choice for production sanding environments where consistent material removal is the priority.

This belt is suited for wide belt sanders, edge sanders, and portable belt sanding machines. It also fits onto a rubber expander wheel attachment for use with a die grinder or rotary drill, allowing the belt to conform to inner and outer contours for parting line removal and deburring. Typical applications include ferrous and non-ferrous metal finishing, surface conditioning, and general woodworking prep work in both shop and field settings.

Installation Notes

Belt installation should be performed by a qualified operator following the machine manufacturer's guidelines.
