Norton 780727-28564 Norzon Plus Belt 60 Grit 0.5x24 in

Product Description

The NORTON 780727-28564 is a NorZon Plus abrasive belt designed for aggressive stock removal on metal and other hard materials. Built on an X-weight polyester backing, this belt delivers high tensile strength and resistance to stretching during operation. The abrasive grain is Zirconia Alumina, a self-sharpening material that fractures during use to expose fresh cutting edges, maintaining consistent cut rate over the life of the belt. At 60 grit, this belt is suited for rapid material removal and surface blending in grinding and finishing applications. It measures 0.5 inches wide by 24 inches long and is sold in packs of 50.

This belt is used in portable belt sander and stationary bench grinder applications common to metalworking, fabrication, and maintenance shops. The 60-grit rating makes it well suited for weld blending, deburring, and scale removal on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The X-weight polyester backing supports heavy contact pressure without belt failure, making it appropriate for production-level work where belt longevity and consistent performance are priorities. Trade professionals in metal fabrication, HVAC sheet metal work, and general maintenance will find this belt a reliable choice for high-contact grinding operations.
