Norton 69957350955 Abrasive Belt 80 Grit 37x75 in

Product Description

The NORTON 69957350955 is a heavy-duty coated abrasive belt engineered for aggressive stock removal on metal fabrication and industrial grinding applications. Built on a durable polyester cloth backing, it uses zirconia alumina grain in an 80-grit, coarse-grade configuration with a closed coat density. At 37 inches wide and 75 inches long, this belt is sized for large-format wide-belt sanders and grinding machines. Zirconia alumina is a self-sharpening abrasive material well suited to high-pressure applications on steel, stainless, and other hard metals. The Series R884P designation identifies the specific bond and backing system used in this product line.

This belt is intended for industrial and fabrication shop environments where wide-belt surface grinding or finishing is performed. It supports both wet and dry operation, giving operators flexibility in coolant use and dust control. Typical applications include weld blending, scale removal, heavy stock removal on plate and structural steel, and surface prep before coating or inspection. Licensed metalworking trades and industrial grinding operators are the primary installers and end users of this belt size.

Key Features

• 80 grit coarse grade suited for rapid stock removal and weld blending
• Closed coat density maximizes grain coverage for efficient material removal
• Polyester cloth backing provides tensile strength and dimensional stability under tension
• Wet and dry compatible for flexible use with or without coolant
• Large 37 x 75 inch format designed for wide-belt industrial grinding equipment

Compatibility

Designed for use on wide-belt industrial abrasive machines that accept a 37 x 75 inch belt format. Confirm machine platen size, contact drum diameter, and belt tracking specifications before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation of wide-format abrasive belts should be performed by qualified machine operators following the equipment manufacturer's procedures. Power down and lockout/tagout the grinder before changing belts. Verify belt tracking alignment after installation and before resuming operation. Inspect the belt for tears, delamination, or splice damage before each use and do not exceed the machine's rated operating speed for the belt size.
