3M 7010363116 Cloth Sanding Belt 132x2 in P400 Grit Ao

Product Description

The 3M 7010363116 is an aluminum oxide coated abrasive cloth belt designed for metalworking applications in light grinding, finishing, deburring, and grain-setting operations. Built on a flexible J-weight cloth backing, this belt conforms to contours and complex part geometries without losing abrasive contact. The open coat construction evacuates sanding dust efficiently, supporting a more aggressive cut and extending abrasive life. At P400 grit, it delivers fine finishing results on a range of metals. The resin bond system locks the abrasive firmly to the backing for consistent performance through heavy use cycles.

This belt is suited for use on carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, bronze, and copper. Its flexible backing makes it a practical choice for blending and finishing curved or irregular surfaces where conformability is critical. Typical applications include metal fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, and production finishing environments. The belt is designed for dry metalworking use on backstand grinders, file belt tools, and benchtop motors. It is sold individually and compatible with standard belt-driven abrasive equipment accepting 132 inch by 2 inch belts.

Installation Notes

Belt installation should be performed by a qualified operator with the machine powered down and all energy sources isolated. Verify belt tracking and tension according to the equipment manufacturer guidelines before operating. Inspect the belt for tears, fraying, or joint separation before each use and replace if damage is found. Always use appropriate eye and respiratory protection when operating abrasive belt equipment.
