3M 7010361731 Abrasive Belt 240 Grit 2x132 in Aluminum Oxide

Product Description

The 3M 7010361731 is a coated abrasive belt designed for dry precision finishing on metal, wood, and composite surfaces. Part of the 341D series, it uses aluminum oxide grain bonded to a heavy X-weight cloth backing with a closed coat density, delivering consistent cut and a fine surface finish. At 240 grit, it falls in the very fine grade range, making it the right tool for final-stage stock removal and surface prep before painting or polishing. The cloth backing holds up under tension on belt grinders and finishing machines without curling or tearing mid-run.

This belt suits metal fabrication shops, HVAC duct fabricators, pipefitters, and millwrights who need controlled finishing on tubing, angle iron, flat bar, and sheet stock. At 2 inches wide and 132 inches long, it fits narrow-contact belt grinders and polishing stations common in trade and light industrial settings. The dry-only operation rating means it is not suitable for wet grinding applications. Closed coat construction resists loading on softer materials and keeps cutting action consistent across the full belt length.

Key Features

• Heavy X-weight cloth backing handles high belt tension without stretching or tearing
• 341D series construction designed for dry grinding and finishing operations
• 2 inch width fits narrow-contact belt grinders and precision finishing machines
• 132 inch length provides extended run time per belt change

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard consumable for narrow-contact belt grinders and finishing machines that accept 2 inch wide by 132 inch long abrasive belts in dry-operation configurations.

Installation Notes

Belt grinding and finishing equipment should be powered off and locked out before changing abrasive belts. Verify belt tracking and tension according to the machine manufacturer guidelines before resuming operation. Inspect the belt for tears or delamination at the splice joint before mounting. This belt is rated for dry use only and should not be used with water, coolant, or cutting fluids.
