3M 7010363446 Abrasive Belt 60 Grit 90x4 Inch Ceramic Ao

Product Description

The 3M 7010363446 is a coated abrasive belt engineered for demanding stock removal and metal finishing applications. It uses a blend of 3M ceramic abrasive grain and aluminum oxide to cut faster and last longer than conventional aluminum oxide belts. The heavyweight polyester cloth backing supports high-pressure grinding and can be run wet or dry, making it well suited for heat-sensitive metals. A built-in grinding aid reduces heat buildup during stainless steel work. At 90 inches long and 4 inches wide with a 60-grit rating, this belt fits wide-belt and stroke-sander configurations common in fabrication and finishing shops.

This belt is used in metal fabrication, weld blending, and surface conditioning on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The 60-grit grade targets aggressive stock removal while still leaving a workable surface finish. It performs in both dry grinding and wet or lubricated setups, which extends its usable life across varied shop conditions. The orange backing and coated construction are consistent with 3M 777F-series belts used in industrial and heavy trade settings where belt longevity and cut rate are the primary concerns.

Key Features

• Ceramic and aluminum oxide grain blend for faster cut rate and longer belt life than traditional AO
• Heavyweight polyester cloth backing handles high-pressure applications without breakdown
• Runs wet or dry, suitable for heat-sensitive metals and varied shop conditions
• Built-in grinding aid reduces heat generation on stainless steel and hard alloys
• Durable resin bond resists heat deterioration to extend service life
• 60 grit provides aggressive stock removal with a consistent scratch pattern

Compatibility

Designed for use on wide-belt sanders, stroke sanders, and contact-wheel grinders that accept 90-inch by 4-inch abrasive belts in metal fabrication and finishing applications.

Installation Notes

Abrasive belts of this type are typically installed and changed by machine operators or shop technicians following the equipment manufacturer's belt-tracking and tensioning procedures. Power down and fully de-energize the sander or grinder before changing the belt. Inspect the contact wheel and platen for wear before installing a new belt, and confirm belt direction-of-travel arrows align with machine rotation. Eye protection and appropriate respiratory protection should be worn during grinding operations.
