Built on a tough Y-weight polyester cloth backing, it uses 3M Precision-Shaped Grain for fast, aggressive stock removal. The belt measures 132 inches long by 3 inches wide and is rated at 36 grit, making it well-suited for heavy-duty material removal and initial finishing passes. Licensed metalworking technicians and fabrication shop operators are the primary installers and users of this belt in stationary and portable belt grinder applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis belt is designed for use on soft metal substrates where loading is a persistent problem. The integrated dry lubricant and water-resistant polyester construction allow operation with liquid coolants, reducing heat buildup and preventing clogging when working aluminum, brass, and bronze. It performs in fabrication shops, welding operations, and metal service centers where consistent cut rate and belt longevity are critical. The 36-grit designation targets aggressive grinding and weld seam removal rather than final finishing passes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3M Precision-Shaped Grain delivers fast cut rates on soft metal substrates\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIntegrated dry lubricant reduces loading when grinding aluminum, brass, and bronze\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWater-resistant Y-weight polyester backing supports use with liquid coolants\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDurable resin bonding resists heat-related deterioration to extend belt life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStrong mineral adhesion reduces shelling at belt edges during aggressive grinding\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSuited for grinding, weld removal, finishing, and blending in a single belt format\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use on stationary and portable belt grinders that accept a 132-inch by 3-inch abrasive belt.

Confirm the machine is fully de-energized and the tension released before mounting or removing the belt. Inspect the belt for tears or edge damage before each use, and never operate a damaged or improperly tracked belt. When using liquid coolants, verify the grinder and workstation are rated for wet grinding operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 36\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBelt Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 132 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBelt Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBacking Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Y-weight polyester cloth\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbrasive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3M Precision-Shaped Grain\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBond Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Resin\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater Resistance\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes, compatible with liquid coolants\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 29.48 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Order Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 25\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3M\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7100162631\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"3M","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51344789176626,"sku":"7100162631","price":606.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310519015.jpg?v=1782043743","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/3m-7100162631-abrasive-belt-36-grit-132x3-inch-cloth","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
