Gator 7085 Sanding Belt 80 Grit 3x18 Inches Ceramic

Product Description

The GATOR 7085 is a ceramic abrasive sanding belt designed for use with portable belt sanders. Measuring 3 inches by 18 inches and rated at 80 grit, it falls in the medium-to-heavy-duty cutting range — aggressive enough to remove material quickly while still leaving a workable surface. The ceramic grain construction delivers consistent cut rate and resists heat build-up during extended use. A durable bonding system adds resistance to heat and humidity, extending belt life under demanding job-site conditions. Licensed trade professionals and skilled tradespeople working with wood, metal, or composite surfaces will find this belt a reliable consumable for high-volume material removal tasks.

This belt is sized to fit the most common 3-inch by 18-inch portable belt sanders used in woodworking, metal fabrication, and general construction trades. It is suited for residential and light commercial applications where fast stock removal or surface leveling is required. The bi-directional flush joint allows the belt to run smoothly in either direction, making it compatible with reversible belt sander models without tracking or seam-bump issues.

Installation Notes
