3M 7010359899 Abrasive Belt 118 Inch 2 Inch Ao Rayon Gray

Product Description

The 3M 7010359899 is a Trizact cloth abrasive belt engineered for intermediate finishing and fine polishing applications in metalworking and fabrication environments. It uses a microreplication process in which micron-graded aluminum oxide mineral is formed into uniform pyramidal structures bonded to a flexible rayon cloth backing. As the pyramids wear down during use, fresh, sharp cutting edges are continuously exposed, delivering a consistent cut rate and predictable surface finish from start to finish. Licensed tradespeople and industrial finishing technicians use this belt where controlled surface preparation ahead of plating, buffing, or coating is required.

This belt is suited for finishing ferrous and non-ferrous metals in production and job-shop environments. The flexible rayon cloth backing conforms to contoured workpiece surfaces, making it effective on curved or irregular geometry. Its three-dimensional abrasive structure supports repeatable, uniform finishes in both manual and robotic grinding or polishing setups. It is particularly useful as a final intermediate step before plating or high-luster buffing operations.

Key Features

• Microreplication technology forms aluminum oxide into self-sharpening pyramidal structures for consistent cut throughout belt life
• Continuously exposed fresh mineral runs cooler than conventional coated abrasives, reducing heat-related workpiece damage
• Flexible rayon cloth backing conforms to contoured and curved surfaces
• Three-dimensional abrasive design supports repeatable finishes in robotic finishing applications
• Produces finer surface finishes than conventional electrostatically coated abrasive belts
• Designed for intermediate finishing and fine polishing prior to plating or buffing

Compatibility

Designed for use on metalworking belt grinders and finishing machines that accept a 118-inch by 2-inch abrasive belt. Confirm machine belt-tracking and tensioning specifications before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified finishing technician or machine operator familiar with abrasive belt equipment. Power down and lock out the machine before changing belts, following OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Inspect the belt for tears or delamination before mounting, and verify the tracking direction arrow on the belt matches the machine drive direction. Do not exceed the maximum operating speed rating of the machine or the belt.
