3M 7010360799 Abrasive Belt 361F P240 Grit 90x6 Inch Ao

Product Description

The 3M 7010360799 is a coated abrasive cloth belt in the 361F series, designed for grinding, blending, deburring, and finishing on metal surfaces including stainless steel. The belt uses aluminum oxide abrasive grains bonded to a tough polyester backing with a heat-resistant resin coating. At 90 inches long and 6 inches wide with a P240 grit rating, it delivers consistent stock removal and surface finishing in medium-pressure applications. It is suited for both wet and dry use, making it a reliable choice for fabrication shops and metal finishing operations.

This belt is commonly used in stainless steel coil finishing lines, backstand grinders, and centerless grinding setups. Its flexibility and heat resistance make it effective for finishing flat sheet stock as well as contoured or tubular workpieces. Metal fabricators, weld finishing technicians, and industrial grinding operators are the primary users. The P240 grit level positions this belt for fine finishing and blending passes rather than aggressive material removal.
