Built on a heavyweight Y-weight polyester backing, this belt delivers the rigidity and durability required for high-pressure belt grinding and finishing operations. The ceramic alumina abrasive grain operates at 60 grit, placing it in the coarse grade range for rapid stock removal on metals, composites, and hard materials. A closed coat density maximizes abrasive coverage across the belt face, improving cut rate and surface consistency. The belt measures 3-1\/2 inches wide by 15-1\/2 inches long and is part of the R983 series. It is suitable for both wet and dry operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis belt is designed for use in industrial and trade shop environments where consistent, aggressive grinding performance is required. Typical applications include weld blending, deburring, and shaping on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The ceramic alumina grain self-sharpens under pressure, extending belt life compared to conventional aluminum oxide. It fits standard belt grinders and finishing machines accepting 3-1\/2 x 15-1\/2 inch belts. Licensed trades including machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians commonly use this type of abrasive in production and repair work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e60 grit coarse grade for aggressive stock removal and rapid material take-down\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCeramic alumina grain self-sharpens during use, extending belt service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eY-weight polyester backing resists tearing and stretching under high belt tension\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClosed coat density provides maximum abrasive surface coverage for consistent cut rate\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with wet or dry operation for flexible use across different machine setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePart of the R983 series, a recognized line for heavy-duty grinding and finishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard consumable for belt grinders and abrasive finishing machines that accept 3-1\/2 x 15-1\/2 inch abrasive belts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlways power down and disconnect the belt grinder or finishing machine before changing abrasive belts. Verify belt tracking and tension according to the machine manufacturer guidelines before resuming operation. Inspect the belt for tears, delamination, or loose seams prior to each use and replace immediately if damage is found. Wet operation requires that the machine is rated for liquid coolant use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBelt Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBelt Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 60\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Coarse\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbrasive Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ceramic Alumina\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbrasive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Coated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoat Density\u003c\/strong\u003e: Closed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBacking Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Polyester\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBacking Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: Y\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWet\/Dry Operation\u003c\/strong\u003e: Wet and Dry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: R983\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31191507\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: NORTON\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 78072718750\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NORTON","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51544673714482,"sku":"78072718750","price":23.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/04f2d01aee36453d9bacc60f1f9a68bc.jpg?v=1785933166","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/norton-78072718750-abrasive-belt-60-grit-3-1-2x15-1-2-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
