3M 7010328669 Coated Abrasive Belt 36 Grit 90x3 Inch

Product Description

The 3M 7010328669 is a coated abrasive cloth belt designed for demanding stock removal and metal finishing applications. It combines 3M Ceramic Abrasive Grain with aluminum oxide in a blend that cuts faster and outlasts standard aluminum oxide belts. The heavyweight polyester backing handles high-pressure grinding without breaking down under load. A built-in grinding aid reduces heat buildup at the contact zone, making this belt well suited for stainless steel and other heat-sensitive metals. It runs dry or with lubricant, giving technicians flexibility across different finishing setups. This belt measures 90 inches in length and 3 inches in width with a 36-grit cut rating.

This belt is used in fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, and metal finishing operations where consistent material removal and long belt life matter. Typical applications include weld blending, surface preparation, and rough finishing on steel, stainless steel, and other ferrous metals. The 36-grit rating places it in the aggressive stock removal range, making it the right choice for initial grinding passes before moving to finer grits. It is commonly run on stationary or portable belt grinders by metal fabricators, maintenance technicians, and industrial tradespeople.

Key Features

• Ceramic and aluminum oxide grain blend for faster cutting and longer service life than standard aluminum oxide
• Heavyweight polyester backing supports high-pressure applications and resists flex fatigue
• Built-in grinding aid reduces heat generation, extending performance on stainless steel
• Durable resin bond resists heat deterioration to extend overall belt life
• Runs wet or dry for flexibility across different work environments
• Produces more finished parts per belt, reducing changeover frequency

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement coated abrasive belt for stationary and portable belt grinders accepting 90-inch by 3-inch belts in metal fabrication and finishing applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified personnel following the grinder manufacturer's belt-change procedure. Always power down and lock out the grinder before removing or mounting a belt. Confirm belt tracking and tension before resuming operation, and verify the belt arrow direction matches the direction of travel on the machine. Eye protection and appropriate PPE are required during operation.
