3M 7100138158 Cloth Band 80 Grit 0.75x1 Inches X-weight

Product Description

The 3M 7100138158 is an aluminum oxide closed-coat cloth band designed for general-purpose material removal in metalworking and woodworking applications. Built on an X-weight cloth backing, this band delivers durability under load and resists heat buildup through its resin bond construction. At 80 grit, it strikes a balance between aggressive stock removal and surface finish, making it well suited for harder woods and ferrous metals. Trade professionals and production shops use this band where consistent cut rate and backing integrity matter across repeated passes.

This cloth band is sized at 0.75 inches wide by 1 inch in diameter, fitting small-diameter band sanding tools, drum sanders, and spindle sanders commonly used in woodworking shops and metal fabrication environments. The closed-coat aluminum oxide construction provides full abrasive coverage across the band face, which supports efficient cutting on dense or hardwood species as well as general metal stock. It is sold individually, with a minimum order quantity of 100 units, making it appropriate for production and supply purchasing.
