3M 7010326352 Abrasive Belt 80 Grit 3.14x1.5 Inch Ceramic Ao

Product Description

The 3M 7010326352 is a coated abrasive belt designed for stock removal and metal finishing in demanding shop environments. It combines 3M ceramic abrasive grain with aluminum oxide in a blend that cuts faster and lasts longer than conventional aluminum oxide belts. The belt runs on a heavyweight polyester cloth backing rated for high-pressure applications and can be operated dry or with lubricant. At 80 grit, it is suited for aggressive material removal on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Licensed trades including machinists, fabricators, and tool-room technicians are the primary installers and users of this type of abrasive consumable.

This belt is used in metal fabrication, stainless steel grinding, and general surface conditioning applications in both production and job-shop settings. The ceramic and aluminum oxide grain blend is particularly effective on heat-sensitive metals where controlling surface temperature matters. A built-in grinding aid helps reduce friction-generated heat during stainless steel work, which limits workpiece discoloration and grain loading. The belt is suited for use on belt grinders and finishing machines in residential shop, commercial fabrication, and light industrial environments.

Installation Notes

Belt installation and replacement should be performed by a qualified operator with the grinding machine powered off and unplugged. Confirm belt tracking and tension according to the machine manufacturer guidelines before resuming operation. Eye protection and appropriate PPE are required when operating abrasive belts. Inspect the belt for tears or separation at the splice before each use and replace if damage is present.
