3M 7010363105 Abrasive Belt P120 Grit 18x1 Inch Ao Ceramic

Product Description

The 3M 7010363105 is a coated abrasive belt designed for stock removal and metal finishing in demanding shop environments. It combines 3M Ceramic Abrasive Grain with aluminum oxide to deliver faster cutting action and longer service life than standard aluminum oxide belts. The belt measures 18 inches in length and 1 inch in width, runs at P120 grit, and is finished in a distinctive orange color for easy identification. A durable resin bond resists heat deterioration, extending belt life under sustained use. Licensed HVAC fabricators, metalworkers, and industrial maintenance technicians who work with stainless steel and heat-sensitive alloys will find this belt particularly well suited to high-pressure grinding tasks.

This belt is intended for use on bench-top and portable belt grinders in both production and maintenance settings. It excels in metal finishing applications including stainless steel, carbon steel, and other ferrous metals where heat buildup and rapid abrasive wear are common challenges. The belt can be run dry or with a compatible lubricant, making it adaptable to a range of shop conditions. It is sold individually and is best suited for operations requiring consistent cut rate across multiple passes.

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit replacement belt for 1 inch by 18 inch belt grinder configurations used in metal fabrication and finishing applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified shop personnel familiar with abrasive belt equipment. Before mounting, power down and lock out the grinder in accordance with applicable OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Verify belt tracking and tension according to the grinder manufacturer's specifications before resuming operation. Inspect the belt for tears or damage before each use and replace immediately if the backing or abrasive layer shows signs of deterioration.
