Built on a heavy-duty Y-weight polyester backing, this belt handles high-pressure and high-heat conditions without breaking down. It runs on ceramic alumina abrasive grain in a closed-coat density configuration, delivering fast, consistent cut rates across metal and hard alloy surfaces. At 36 grit, it falls in the extra coarse grade range, making it well suited for weld blending, heavy stock removal, and surface conditioning prior to finer finishing passes. The R980P series designation confirms this belt is designed for production-grade performance in both wet and dry operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis belt is used in metal fabrication shops, pipe fitting operations, weld repair work, and general metalworking environments. Its 2-inch width and 48-inch length fit a range of stationary and portable belt grinders commonly found in trade and light industrial settings. Ceramic alumina grain self-sharpens under pressure, which extends belt life compared to aluminum oxide alternatives, reducing changeover frequency during high-volume work. Wet or dry operation makes it adaptable to coolant-assisted grinding setups as well as dry-run portable tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCeramic alumina abrasive grain for aggressive cut and extended belt life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e36 grit extra coarse grade for heavy stock removal and weld blending\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eY-weight polyester backing resists tearing and flexing under high-pressure grinding\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClosed-coat density maximizes abrasive coverage for consistent surface contact\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated for both wet and dry operation for use with or without grinding coolant\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eR980P series construction designed for production-intensity use cycles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct consumable for belt grinders and file belt sanders accepting a 2-inch by 48-inch abrasive belt in trade and light industrial settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by metalworking technicians or fabricators familiar with belt grinder maintenance. Before changing a belt, power down the grinder and allow all moving parts to come to a complete stop. Confirm belt tracking direction arrows align with the grinder drive wheel rotation before tensioning. Inspect the platen and contact wheel for wear before mounting a new belt, as surface irregularities will reduce belt life and cut quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBelt Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBelt Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 48 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 36\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Extra Coarse\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbrasive Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ceramic Alumina\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbrasive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Coated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoat Density\u003c\/strong\u003e: Closed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBacking Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Polyester\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBacking Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: Y\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: R980P\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWet\/Dry Operation\u003c\/strong\u003e: Wet and Dry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.28 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 14.5 inches L x 14.25 inches W x 2 inches H\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31191507\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: NORTON\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 63642592057\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NORTON","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51541779480882,"sku":"63642592057","price":25.43,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/0385c5601b3ee954fad1b7952dc82931.jpg?v=1785884725","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/norton-63642592057-abrasive-belt-36-grit-2x48-in-ceramic","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
