3M Company BELT3X211PK36 Sanding Belt 36 Grit

Product Description

The 3M COMPANY BELT3X211PK36 is a rapid-removal power sanding belt designed for aggressive material stock removal on flat and contoured surfaces. Measuring 3 x 21 inches and rated at 36 grit, this coarse-grit belt cuts fast through bare metal, wood, and composite materials. It is engineered for use with standard 3 x 21 inch belt sanders commonly found in trade and production environments. HVAC fabricators, plumbers, pipefitters, and general contractors rely on this grit level for rapid deburring, weld blending, and surface prep before finishing operations.

This sanding belt is suited for heavy-duty surface preparation tasks in residential and light commercial settings. Typical applications include removing rust, scale, paint, and rough mill marks from metal pipe, structural steel, wood framing members, and fabricated sheet metal. The 36 grit designation makes it appropriate for initial passes where fast material removal is the priority, prior to stepping up to finer grits for finish work. Each package contains one belt, with a case quantity of 10 units.
