3M 7010326349 Abrasive Belt 168 Inch Aluminum Oxide Cloth

Product Description

The 3M 7010326349 is a Trizact 237AA coated abrasive belt engineered for intermediate finishing and fine polishing applications. It uses 3M microreplication technology, where micron-graded aluminum oxide particles are formed into three-dimensional pyramids and bonded to an X-weight cloth backing. As the pyramids wear during use, fresh abrasive mineral is continuously exposed, delivering a consistent cut rate and a predictable, fine surface finish throughout the belt's service life. At 168 inches long and 1.5 inches wide, this belt is sized for industrial-grade belt finishing equipment used in metalworking environments.

This belt is designed for intermediate finishing and fine polishing on metal workpieces prior to plating or buffing operations. Its flexible cloth backing conforms to contoured surfaces, making it suitable for both flat and shaped workpiece geometry. The three-dimensional abrasive structure supports consistent finish results in automated and robotic finishing lines, where repeatable surface quality is critical. It is also applicable to manual belt finishing setups in fabrication and manufacturing environments.

Key Features

• Microreplication technology forms aluminum oxide into self-sharpening abrasive pyramids for consistent cut and finish
• Fresh mineral is continuously exposed as pyramids wear, extending usable belt life
• Runs cooler than conventional abrasives, reducing heat-related workpiece distortion
• Flexible X-weight cloth backing conforms to contoured surfaces for uniform finish
• Produces finer finishes than conventional electrostatically coated abrasive belts
• Three-dimensional abrasive design supports consistent results in robotic and automated finishing applications

Compatibility

Designed for use on industrial belt finishing machines that accept a 168-inch by 1.5-inch abrasive belt. Suited for metalworking applications requiring fine surface preparation prior to plating or buffing.

Installation Notes

Belt installation and tracking should be performed by qualified personnel familiar with the finishing equipment manufacturer guidelines. Power down and lock out the machine before mounting or removing the belt. Verify belt tension and tracking before resuming operation. Inspect the belt for tears or delamination prior to each use.
