3M 7100027105 Aluminum Oxide Cloth Belt 80 Grit 72x3 in

Product Description

The 3M 7100027105 is an aluminum oxide coated abrasive cloth belt designed for metal deburring, general metalworking, and woodworking material removal. Built on an X-weight cloth backing, this belt handles the demands of heavy sanding and grinding without breaking down under pressure. The resin bond system resists high heat generated during aggressive stock removal. At 72 inches long and 3 inches wide with an 80 grit mineral, it delivers fast cutting action across a range of metal and wood substrates. Licensed HVAC and mechanical trades use abrasive belts like this during equipment fabrication, sheet metal prep, and ductwork finishing. Installation and fabrication technicians are the primary users.

This belt is suited for wide belt sanders, edge sanders, and portable belt sanding equipment. The tube-shaped band construction also allows it to fit onto a rubber expander wheel attachment used with a die grinder or rotary drill, making it effective for reaching inner and outer contours to remove parting lines, imperfections, and burrs. It performs on ferrous and non-ferrous metals as well as wood substrates in both shop and field environments.
