Norton 78072717162 Abrasive Belt 220 Grit 3x24 in

Product Description

The NORTON 78072717162 is a coated abrasive belt designed for precision surface finishing on a wide range of materials. Running 3 inches wide and 24 inches long, this belt uses silicon carbide abrasive at 220 grit, placing it in the very fine grade range. Silicon carbide cuts fast on hard, brittle surfaces and delivers a consistent scratch pattern suited to finishing operations. The belt supports both wet and dry operation, giving technicians flexibility depending on the workpiece and application requirements.

This belt is a practical choice for finishing metals, composites, ceramics, glass, and stone where a fine surface finish is needed. It fits standard 3 x 24 inch belt sanders and finishing machines common in fabrication shops, tool rooms, and maintenance environments. Wet use helps control heat buildup and extends belt life on harder substrates. Dry use is appropriate for lighter finishing passes where coolant is not practical.

Key Features

• 220 grit very fine grade for controlled material removal and smooth surface finishing
• Silicon carbide abrasive for effective cutting on hard and brittle materials
• Coated abrasive construction for consistent grain distribution across the belt surface
• Wet and dry rated for versatile use across different finishing setups
• 3 inches x 24 inches size fits standard belt sander platforms

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit replacement for standard 3 x 24 inch abrasive belt sanders and finishing machines requiring a 220 grit silicon carbide coated belt.

Installation Notes

Install on a compatible belt sander with the machine powered off and unplugged before changing belts. Verify belt tracking adjustment after installation and run briefly at low speed to confirm alignment before full operation. For wet applications, ensure the machine is rated for wet use before introducing coolant or water.
