3M 7100073951 Ceramic Abrasive Belt P220 72x2 Inch

Product Description

The 3M 7100073951 is a coated abrasive cloth belt designed for light to moderate-pressure stock removal, blending, and finishing on contoured surfaces. It uses a blend of 3M Ceramic Abrasive Grain and premium aluminum oxide, giving it greater durability and cutting efficiency than standard aluminum oxide belts. The flexible rayon backing conforms to curved and irregular workpiece profiles, making it well suited for consistent finishing passes on complex geometries. A built-in grinding aid reduces heat buildup during use, which is especially beneficial when working on stainless steel and other heat-sensitive metals.

This belt is used in metalworking and fabrication environments where surface finishing quality and belt longevity are priorities. It is appropriate for light grinding, blending welds, scratch refinement, and surface prep on ferrous and non-ferrous metals including stainless steel and exotic alloys. The 72-inch length and 2-inch width fit standard contact wheel and file belt machines commonly found in fabrication shops and industrial maintenance operations. It is sold per belt.

Key Features

• Ceramic and aluminum oxide abrasive blend delivers higher cut rates and longer belt life than aluminum oxide alone
• Flexible rayon backing conforms to contoured and curved workpiece surfaces
• Incorporated grinding aid reduces heat and improves performance on stainless steel and exotic metals
• Durable resin bond resists heat-related deterioration, extending usable belt life
• P220 grit rating suited for finishing, scratch refinement, and light stock removal
• 72-inch by 2-inch size fits standard file belt and contact wheel machines

Compatibility

Designed for use on standard file belt machines and contact wheel grinders accepting a 72-inch by 2-inch abrasive belt. Suitable for use on stainless steel, ferrous metals, and exotic alloys in light to moderate-pressure finishing applications.

Installation Notes

Belt installation and replacement should be performed by qualified personnel following the machine manufacturer's guidelines. Ensure the machine is fully powered down and locked out before changing belts. Verify belt tracking and tension before resuming operation. Always use appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection and gloves when handling abrasive belts and operating grinding equipment.
