3M 7010368566 Non-woven Abrasive Belt 12x0.5 in Ao

Product Description

The 3M 7010368566 is a non-woven surface conditioning abrasive belt designed for one-step workpiece preparation ahead of final finishes and coatings. Built on an RC (surface conditioning) material with aluminum oxide abrasive, this belt delivers high initial cut rate and extended cut life. It measures 12 inches in length by 1/2 inch in width and weighs 0.45 pounds. Licensed HVAC technicians, metal fabricators, and finishing professionals use this belt for deburring, blending, cleaning, and light material removal on composites and softer metals. Enhanced edge durability and flexibility allow it to handle varied surface geometries without premature breakdown.

This belt is suited for flat surface applications in both shop and field environments. It performs well on stainless steel, composites, and softer metal substrates. The aluminum oxide grain on RC backing makes it an efficient choice for general-purpose metal finishing, including coating removal and surface preparation before painting or coating. It is particularly effective as a starting point for bringing stainless steel to a No. 4 finish. Minimum order quantity is 10 belts per unit of measure.
