3M 7010361730 Cloth Sanding Belt 48in 2in P240 Grit Ao

Product Description

The 3M 7010361730 is an aluminum oxide cloth abrasive belt designed for metal deburring, general metalworking, and woodworking applications. Built on an X-weight cloth backing, this belt handles heavy sanding and grinding without breaking down under high heat or pressure. The resin bond system locks the abrasive mineral firmly in place, while the P240 grit rating delivers controlled stock removal and surface finishing on metal and wood substrates. Licensed HVAC technicians, fabricators, and metalworking professionals reach for this belt when parting lines, burrs, and surface imperfections need to be removed cleanly and efficiently.

This belt measures 48 inches in length and 2 inches in width, making it suited for wide belt sanders, edge sanders, and portable belt sanding machines. It can also be mounted on a rubber expander wheel attachment used with a die grinder or rotary drill for contour work on inner and outer curved surfaces. The tube-shaped band profile lets the belt conform to both concave and convex workpiece geometry, which is useful in pipe deburring, weld blending, and part finishing operations common in metal fabrication and mechanical service work.
