3M 7010360356 Abrasive Belt P120 18x1/8 Inch Ceramic Ao

Product Description

The 3M 7010360356 is a coated abrasive belt engineered for demanding stock removal and metal finishing applications. It combines ceramic abrasive grain with aluminum oxide in a blend that cuts faster and lasts longer than conventional aluminum oxide belts. The heavyweight polyester cloth backing handles high-pressure grinding without breaking down, and the belt runs equally well dry or with a lubricant. A built-in grinding aid manages heat buildup, making this belt well suited for heat-sensitive metals including stainless steel. Licensed HVAC, plumbing, and metal fabrication shops running high-cycle belt grinders will find this belt reduces changeover frequency on production runs.

This belt is sized at 18 inches in length and 1/8 inch in width, with a P120 grit rating that positions it in the medium finishing range — aggressive enough for initial metal conditioning but fine enough to leave a consistent surface finish. It is intended for use on stationary or portable belt grinders in light industrial, fabrication, and trade-shop environments. The orange-colored backing is characteristic of the 777F series and makes belt identification straightforward in multi-grit setups.

Key Features

• Ceramic and aluminum oxide grain blend for faster cutting and extended belt life versus standard AO belts
• Heavyweight polyester cloth backing supports high-pressure applications without backing failure
• Runs wet or dry, compatible with water-based and oil-based lubricants
• Integrated grinding aid reduces heat generation during stainless steel and heat-sensitive metal grinding
• Durable resin bond resists heat deterioration to extend service life between belt changes
• P120 grit provides a balance of stock removal rate and surface finish quality

Compatibility

Designed for use on belt grinders and finishing machines accepting an 18-inch by 1/8-inch abrasive belt. Verify machine contact wheel and platen dimensions before installation.

Installation Notes

Belt installation should be performed by qualified personnel following the belt grinder manufacturer's guidelines. Power down and lock out the machine before changing belts. Inspect the contact wheel and platen for wear or damage prior to mounting a new belt. Follow all applicable shop safety codes and wear appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection and gloves when operating abrasive belt equipment.
