The belt measures 2 inches wide by 72 inches in overall length and cuts at 100 grit, placing it in the medium grade range. The abrasive material is aluminum oxide, a durable and versatile mineral well-suited for stock removal and surface blending on ferrous metals, hardwoods, and composites. The X-weight cloth backing provides stiffness and tear resistance under aggressive grinding pressure. The closed coat density ensures consistent scratch patterns across the workpiece surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis belt is intended for dry operation only.
