Norton 69957350934 Abrasive Belt 36 Grit 36x75 in

Product Description

The NORTON 69957350934 is a heavy-duty zirconia alumina abrasive belt designed for aggressive stock removal on metal, weld seams, and hard-to-grind materials. At 36 grit extra coarse, it is built for rapid material takedown rather than finishing work. The closed-coat construction keeps abrasive grain tightly packed across the polyester cloth backing, delivering consistent cut and durability under both wet and dry operating conditions. At 8.3 pounds, this is a substantial belt suited for large-format belt grinders and wide-platen machines used in fabrication and metalworking environments. Licensed tradespeople and skilled fabricators are the primary installers and operators.

This belt is sized at 36 inches wide by 75 inches long, making it appropriate for wide-belt grinding and sanding machines found in industrial fabrication shops, metal service centers, and heavy manufacturing facilities. The zirconia alumina abrasive material is self-sharpening under pressure, which extends belt life during prolonged grinding passes on structural steel, stainless, and similar ferrous or non-ferrous substrates. Both wet and dry operation are supported, giving operators flexibility depending on their machine setup and workpiece requirements.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machine operator or maintenance technician familiar with wide-belt grinding equipment. Power down and lock out the machine before changing belts, following OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Confirm belt tracking tension and platen alignment before resuming operation. Always verify the belt rotation arrow matches the machine's drive direction prior to startup.
