Norton 69957350931 Abrasive Belt 60 Grit 36x75 in

Product Description

The NORTON 69957350931 is a coarse-grade zirconia alumina abrasive belt engineered for heavy stock removal on metal, wood, and composite surfaces. Built on a durable polyester cloth backing, it measures 36 inches wide by 75 inches long and delivers consistent cut with a closed-coat construction at 60 grit. Zirconia alumina is a self-sharpening abrasive grain that fractures under pressure to expose fresh cutting edges, maintaining aggressive material removal rates throughout the belt's service life. Part of the R884P series, this belt is rated for both wet and dry operation, making it suitable for a wide range of surface preparation and fabrication tasks performed by metalworkers, welders, and industrial finishing technicians.

This belt is suited for wide-belt sanding machines and large stationary belt grinders commonly found in metal fabrication shops, structural steel operations, and industrial woodworking facilities. At 36 inches wide and 75 inches long, it fits drum and platen configurations used in production-line finishing and heavy deburring work. The 60-grit coarse designation targets initial weld seam blending, scale removal, and aggressive surface conditioning before progressing to finer grits. Wet or dry compatibility adds flexibility for shops that use coolant or lubricant during grinding operations.

Key Features

• Zirconia alumina grain self-sharpens during use for sustained aggressive cut rate
• Closed-coat construction maximizes grain density for faster stock removal
• Polyester cloth backing provides high tensile strength and flexibility under load
• Rated for both wet and dry operation to suit varied shop environments
• 60 grit coarse grade targets weld blending, scale removal, and heavy surface prep
• Part of the R884P series for consistent performance across production applications

Compatibility

Designed to fit wide-belt sanding and grinding machines that accept 36-inch by 75-inch abrasive belts in production metal fabrication and industrial woodworking applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified machine operators following the equipment manufacturer's guidelines for belt tensioning and tracking. Ensure the machine is fully de-energized and locked out before replacing the belt. Verify belt direction-of-travel arrows align with machine rotation before powering on. Inspect the platen or contact drum for wear or damage prior to mounting a new belt.
