3M 7010363452 Abrasive Belt 80 Grit 24x3 Inch Ceramic Ao

Product Description

The 3M 7010363452 is a coated abrasive cloth belt designed for demanding stock removal and metal finishing applications. It combines ceramic abrasive grain with aluminum oxide in a blend that cuts faster and lasts longer than conventional aluminum oxide belts. The heavyweight polyester cloth backing handles high-pressure grinding and can be run dry or with lubricant, making it suitable for both wet and dry finishing setups. At 80 grit, it is well-suited for aggressive material removal on metals including stainless steel, carbon steel, and other alloys. Licensed tradespeople and fabrication shops in metalworking, welding, and HVAC duct fabrication environments commonly specify this belt.

This belt measures 24 inches in length and 3 inches in width and is intended for use on industrial and professional-grade belt grinders, sanders, and finishing machines. The orange-colored backing helps with quick identification in multi-belt shop environments. It performs particularly well in high-heat scenarios where conventional abrasive belts break down prematurely. The built-in grinding aid actively reduces heat buildup, which is critical when working on heat-sensitive metals such as stainless steel where discoloration and warping are concerns.
