3M 7100113995 Abrasive Belt 180 Grit 37x60 in Aluminum Oxide

Product Description

The 3M 7100113995 is a coated abrasive belt engineered for dry precision finishing on wide-format belt grinders and surface grinders. Running 37 inches wide by 60 inches long, this belt uses aluminum oxide grain in a closed-coat configuration at 180 grit (Very Fine grade), making it well suited for fine material removal, blending, and surface prep before finish coats. The XF-weight polyester cloth backing delivers flexibility and tear resistance under continuous load, maintaining consistent grain contact across large workpiece surfaces. Licensed trades and metalworking shops reach for this belt when consistent scratch patterns and dimensional control matter.

This belt is appropriate for dry grinding and finishing applications on ferrous and non-ferrous metals, composites, and wood products where 180-grit Very Fine stock removal is required. It is sized for wide-belt sanders and industrial surface-finishing machines that accept a 37-inch by 60-inch belt format. Typical users include metal fabrication shops, woodworking production lines, and industrial maintenance teams performing surface conditioning on large panels or structural components.

Key Features

• 180 grit Very Fine grade aluminum oxide for controlled, consistent fine finishing
• Closed-coat construction maximizes abrasive coverage for efficient material removal
• XF-weight polyester cloth backing provides flexibility and durability under load
• Dry-use design suited for metalworking, woodworking, and composite finishing
• 3M Series 361F construction for uniform grain bonding and extended belt life

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit replacement for wide-belt sanding and surface-grinding machines that accept a 37-inch by 60-inch abrasive belt in dry-use applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified personnel familiar with the specific belt sander or surface grinder model in use. Power down and lock out the machine before removing the spent belt and seating the new one. Verify belt tracking and tension per the machine manufacturer's guidelines before resuming operation. Inspect the belt for tears or grain separation before each use and replace immediately if damage is found.
