Norton 78072702825 Abrasive Belt 320 Grit 2x60 in

Product Description

The NORTON 78072702825 is a coated abrasive belt designed for dry grinding, finishing, and surface preparation on stationary or portable belt sanders. Built on a cloth backing with X-weight designation, this belt uses aluminum oxide abrasive grain at 320 grit for extra fine stock removal and surface refinement. The closed coat density ensures consistent coverage and uniform scratch patterns across the workpiece. At 2 inches wide and 60 inches in overall length, it fits a standard range of industrial and trade belt sander configurations. The R228 series construction is suited for metalworking, woodworking, and general fabrication applications where a fine finish is required.

This belt is intended for dry operation and is well suited to finishing passes on metals, hardwoods, and composites. Typical users include metal fabricators, welders, pipefitters, carpenters, and general maintenance technicians who need consistent fine-grit performance on long-run sanding equipment. The 2 inch by 60 inch format is a common size found in bench-top and floor-standing belt sander units used across light industrial and trade shop environments.
