3M 7010363736 Abrasive Belt 100x2.5 in 80 Grit Ao Ceramic

Product Description

The 3M 7010363736 is a coated abrasive belt engineered for demanding stock removal and metal finishing applications. It combines ceramic abrasive grain with aluminum oxide in a proprietary blend that cuts faster and lasts longer than conventional aluminum oxide belts. The heavyweight polyester cloth backing handles high-pressure grinding without breakdown. At 100 inches long and 2.5 inches wide with an 80-grit cut, this belt is well suited for production metalworking, weld blending, and surface conditioning on steel, stainless, and similar hard metals. A built-in grinding aid controls heat buildup during stainless steel grinding, protecting both the belt and the workpiece. The durable resin bond resists heat deterioration throughout the belt life.

This belt fits applications where throughput and belt longevity matter. It is used on stationary belt grinders and wide-belt finishing machines in fabrication shops, maintenance environments, and light manufacturing. The 80-grit designation makes it appropriate for aggressive material removal followed by intermediate blending passes. It runs effectively both dry and with a compatible lubricant or coolant, giving operators flexibility when working with heat-sensitive metals such as stainless steel, titanium, and aluminum alloys.

Key Features

• Ceramic and aluminum oxide grain blend delivers faster cut rates and longer service life versus standard aluminum oxide
• Heavyweight polyester cloth backing supports high-pressure applications without premature backing failure
• Grinding aid reduces heat generation, extending performance life on stainless steel and other heat-sensitive metals
• Durable resin bond resists heat deterioration throughout belt service
• Runs wet or dry for application flexibility
• 80-grit cut suited for stock removal and initial weld blending

Compatibility

Designed for use on belt grinders and wide-belt finishing machines accepting 100-inch by 2.5-inch abrasive belts. Verify machine belt-size specifications before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified operator familiar with abrasive belt equipment. Power down and de-energize the grinder completely before changing belts. Inspect the contact wheel, idler, and tracking mechanism for wear before mounting a new belt. Confirm belt tracking and tension at low speed before returning the machine to full production use.
