Product Description

The 3M 7010360683 is an aluminum oxide cloth abrasive belt designed for metal deburring, general metalworking, and woodworking applications. Constructed with an X-weight cloth backing and a resin bond system, this belt handles heavy sanding and grinding demands where heat and pressure are constant factors. The P240 grit aluminum oxide mineral cuts consistently across metal and wood substrates. Measuring 9.37 inches in length and 2 inches in width, the tube-shaped band profile fits inner and outer contours, making it well suited for removing parting lines, surface imperfections, and burrs on formed or cast parts. Licensed tradespeople and production metalworkers are the primary installers and users of this consumable abrasive.

This belt is appropriate for wide belt sanding, edge sanding, and portable belt sanding operations in both residential shop and light commercial or industrial environments. Its tube-shaped construction allows it to fit onto a rubber expander wheel attachment for use with a die grinder or rotary drill, extending its utility to contoured surfaces and hard-to-reach areas. It performs on a variety of metal substrates and wood, making it a versatile consumable for general fabrication and finishing workflows.
