3M 7010326263 Abrasive Belt 36x4 Inch 80 Grit Aluminum Oxide

Product Description

The 3M 7010326263 is a coated abrasive cloth belt designed for grinding, blending, deburring, and finishing operations on metal surfaces. Built on a tough polyester backing with aluminum oxide abrasive grains bonded by a heat-resistant resin, this belt delivers consistent cut rate and durability under medium-pressure conditions. At 36 inches long and 4 inches wide with an 80-grit cut, it handles both wet and dry applications without sacrificing backing integrity. It is installed and used by metal fabricators, welders, and finishing technicians working on sheet and coil stock.

This belt is well suited to stainless steel coil finishing, centerless grinding, and backstand operations in fabrication shops and light industrial settings. The aluminum oxide grain cuts fast across a wide range of metals and holds up under the heat generated in continuous-contact applications. Its flexibility makes it effective on both flat stock and curved workpieces where consistent surface contact is needed throughout the pass.

Key Features

• Aluminum oxide abrasive grain delivers fast cut and consistent performance on steel, stainless steel, and other metals
• Polyester cloth backing provides strength and flexibility for medium-pressure grinding and finishing
• Heat-resistant resin bonding maintains abrasive adhesion under sustained pressure and elevated temperatures
• Suitable for wet and dry use, extending versatility across coolant-assisted and dry finishing setups
• 80-grit rating appropriate for aggressive stock removal with a controlled surface finish
• Engineered for centerless grinding, backstand, and sheet and coil finishing applications

Compatibility

Designed for use on metal grinding and finishing machines that accept 4 inch wide by 36 inch long abrasive belts, including backstand grinders and centerless belt finishing equipment used in metal fabrication environments.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machine operators and metal finishing technicians. Before mounting, power down and lock out the belt grinder per OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Verify belt tracking alignment and tension to manufacturer specifications before resuming operation. Inspect the belt seam orientation and install in the direction indicated by any directional arrows on the backing to prevent seam failure under load.
