3M 7010361749 Abrasive Belt 40 Grit 2x48 Aluminum Oxide

Product Description

The 3M 7010361749 is a coated abrasive belt designed for aggressive stock removal on metal, wood, and composite surfaces. Part of the 3M 341D series, this belt measures 2 inches wide by 48 inches long and runs a 40-grit aluminum oxide abrasive on an X-weight cloth backing with closed coat density. The coarse 40-grit cut makes it well-suited for rapid material removal, weld blending, and surface conditioning work where speed matters more than finish quality. It is intended for dry operation only. Trade professionals in metal fabrication, maintenance, and general industrial applications will find this belt a reliable workhorse for high-stock-removal tasks.

This abrasive belt fits standard 2 inch by 48 inch belt grinders and finishing machines common in metalworking shops, HVAC fabrication environments, plumbing and mechanical contractor shops, and general maintenance facilities. The X-weight cloth backing resists tearing under load, making it appropriate for use on stationary belt grinders where consistent pressure and extended run times are the norm. It is sold individually and is intended for dry grinding applications only. No coolant or cutting fluid should be used with this belt.
