Measuring 2 inches wide by 72 inches in overall length, it uses aluminum oxide as the abrasive material bonded to an X-weight cloth backing. The closed-coat density ensures maximum abrasive coverage across the belt surface, making it effective for fast stock removal on ferrous metals, wood, and composite materials. At 80 grit, this belt falls in the coarse grade range, suited for shaping, deburring, and rough surface preparation. It is part of the NORTON R228 series and is used by fabricators, metalworkers, woodworkers, and maintenance technicians on standard belt grinders and sanders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis belt fits stationary and portable belt sander setups that accept a 2 inch by 72 inch belt configuration. It is a practical choice for fabrication shops, weld preparation, and surface conditioning work where dry operation is required. The coarse 80-grit cut is appropriate for initial passes before stepping to finer grit belts. The X-weight cloth backing provides the rigidity and durability needed for high-contact-pressure grinding on belt grinders operating at typical industrial speeds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e80 grit coarse grade for aggressive stock removal and rapid surface shaping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAluminum oxide abrasive material offers consistent cut rate on metals and wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eX-weight cloth backing delivers durability under high contact pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClosed-coat density maximizes abrasive coverage for efficient material removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDry-use design rated for standard belt grinding and sanding applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNORTON R228 series construction for consistent performance across the belt life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use on belt grinders and sanders that accept a 2 inch by 72 inch abrasive belt.
