3M 7100098899 Abrasive Belt P120 Grit 24x1/8 Inch Ao Ceramic

Product Description

The 3M 7100098899 is a coated abrasive belt engineered 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 standard aluminum oxide belts. The heavyweight polyester cloth backing handles high-pressure grinding without breaking down, and the belt can be run dry or with a lubricant. A built-in grinding aid helps reduce heat buildup, making this belt well suited for work on heat-sensitive metals including stainless steel. The durable resin bond resists heat deterioration to extend belt service life.

This belt is sized at 24 inches in length and 1/8 inch in width, with a P120 grit rating appropriate for intermediate finishing and light stock removal on metal workpieces. It is used in industrial and fabrication environments where consistent cut rate and belt longevity are priorities. Typical applications include metal finishing, weld blending, and surface conditioning on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Licensed trade professionals and fabrication shop technicians are the primary installers and operators of this product.

Key Features

• Ceramic and aluminum oxide grain blend delivers faster cut rates and longer life than conventional aluminum oxide belts
• Heavyweight polyester cloth backing supports high-pressure applications without deformation
• Runs wet or dry, offering flexibility across different finishing environments
• Integrated grinding aid reduces heat generation during stainless steel and heat-sensitive metal work
• Resin bond resists heat deterioration, extending belt service intervals and reducing changeover frequency
• P120 grit rating suitable for intermediate stock removal and surface finishing

Compatibility

Designed for use on belt grinders and finishing machines that accept a 24-inch by 1/8-inch abrasive belt, particularly in metal fabrication and finishing applications involving ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified operator following the machine manufacturer's belt-change procedure. Power down and de-energize the grinder or belt finishing machine completely before removing or mounting the belt. Confirm belt tracking and tension according to the equipment manual before resuming operation. Always wear appropriate PPE including eye protection and gloves when handling and operating abrasive belts.
