Norton 66623373759 Abrasive Belt 60 Grit 0.5x24 Inches

Product Description

The NORTON 66623373759 is a coated abrasive belt designed for aggressive material removal on metal, weld seams, and fabricated components. Built on an X-weight polyester cloth backing, it delivers the flexibility and tensile strength needed for portable belt sanders and stationary finishing machines. The abrasive material is zirconia alumina, a self-sharpening grain that fractures under pressure to expose fresh cutting edges, maintaining consistent cut rates across the belt's service life. At 60 grit coarse grade with a closed coat density, this belt is suited to rapid stock removal rather than fine finishing work. It measures 0.5 inches wide by 24 inches long and weighs approximately 0.01 pounds per unit.

This belt is a standard fit for 0.5-inch-wide by 24-inch-long belt sander applications found in metal fabrication shops, pipe and tube finishing, and general industrial grinding operations. The R823P series is rated for both wet and dry operation, making it usable with coolant-assisted grinding setups or standard dry-run portable tools. Typical users include fabricators, pipefitters, millwrights, and maintenance technicians performing weld blending, deburring, and surface conditioning on ferrous and non-ferrous metals.

• Rated for both wet and dry use, compatible with coolant-assisted grinding setups
• 60 grit coarse grade suited to weld blending, deburring, and rapid material removal
• Compact 0.5-inch width fits narrow-contact-wheel and file-belt tool configurations

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement or consumable abrasive belt for belt sanders and grinders accepting a 0.5-inch wide by 24-inch long belt. Part of the Norton R823P series.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified personnel familiar with abrasive tool operation and the specific sander or grinder being serviced. Power down and unplug or lock out the tool before changing belts. Confirm belt tracking direction arrow aligns with wheel rotation before resuming operation. Inspect the contact wheel, platen, and idler for wear or damage before mounting a new belt.
