Norton 780727-27985 Benchstand Belt 6x48 in 50-X Grit

Product Description

The NORTON 780727-27985 is an aluminum oxide benchstand abrasive belt designed for aggressive material removal on stationary belt grinders and benchstand machines. Measuring 6 inches x 48 inches, this belt runs on standard industrial benchstand units common in fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, and trade environments. The 50-X grit designation places it in the coarse range, making it well suited for rapid stock removal, deburring, and shaping of metal, wood, and composite surfaces. Sold individually, with a minimum order quantity of 20 units. Abrasive professionals and industrial maintenance techs are the primary installers and users of this product.

This belt is intended for use on stationary benchstand belt grinders in both light industrial and heavy-duty shop settings. The 6 x 48 inch format is a widely used size across benchtop and floor-standing belt grinder models found in metal fabrication, welding shops, and general maintenance operations. The coarse 50-X grit is a first-pass abrasive for removing scale, weld spatter, burrs, and surface irregularities before finer finishing steps. It is suitable for ferrous and non-ferrous metals as well as hardwoods.
