3M 7010326353 Abrasive Belt 60x2 Inch 60 Grit Ceramic Cloth

Product Description

The 3M 7010326353 is a coated abrasive belt built for demanding metal finishing applications. It combines aluminum oxide and ceramic grain on an X-weight cotton cloth backing, producing fast cut rates and long belt life compared to conventional abrasive belts. The 60-inch length and 2-inch width suit standard stroke sanding and backstand operations. At 60 grit, it removes material efficiently while leaving a consistent surface profile on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. A built-in grinding aid reduces heat buildup at the workpiece, which is especially important when finishing heat-sensitive alloys such as stainless steel and nickel-based materials. Licensed trades and metal fabricators alike rely on this belt for production finishing work.

This belt is suited for stroke sanding, backstand grinding, and general metal surface finishing in fabrication shops, manufacturing facilities, and maintenance environments. It performs on a wide range of substrates including stainless steel, nickel alloys, carbon steel, and other metals that require a controlled, repeatable finish. The anti-friction backing allows the belt to track smoothly on belt-finishing machines, reducing chatter and uneven wear. It is sold individually and is intended for professional use where belt life and finish consistency are critical to production throughput.

Key Features

• Ceramic and aluminum oxide blend delivers high cut rate and extended belt life
• X-weight cotton backing withstands aggressive sanding and grinding pressure
• Anti-friction backing promotes smooth tracking on belt finishing equipment
• Grinding aid reduces heat generation to protect heat-sensitive metal substrates
• 60 grit provides efficient material removal with a consistent surface profile
• Effective on stainless steel, nickel alloys, carbon steel, and other metals

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement abrasive belt for stroke sanders and backstand grinders accepting 60-inch by 2-inch belts.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machine operators and metal finishing technicians. Power down and lock out the belt finishing machine before changing belts, following OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Confirm the belt arrow marking aligns with the direction of machine travel before starting. Inspect tracking tension adjustment after initial startup and correct as needed before beginning a production run.
