3M 7010326493 Abrasive Belt 40 Grit Aluminum Oxide 24x4 Inch

Product Description

The 3M 7010326493 is an aluminum oxide cloth abrasive belt designed for metal deburring, general metalworking, and woodworking applications. This 24-inch by 4-inch belt carries a 40-grit rating and uses an X-weight cloth backing that holds up under heavy sanding and grinding loads. The resin bond resists high heat and pressure, keeping the abrasive mineral intact during aggressive stock removal. Licensed tradespeople and shop technicians working with metal substrates or wood reach for this belt when consistent, fast-cutting performance is required across a range of surface conditioning tasks.

This belt is suited for wide belt, edge, and portable belt sanding operations. Its tube-shaped band profile fits inner and outer contours, making it effective for removing parting lines, surface imperfections, and burrs from machined or cast metal parts. The belt is also compatible with rubber expander wheel attachments used with die grinders or rotary drills, expanding its range into tight or contoured workpieces. It is sold individually as a single unit.
