Norton 78072727547 Abrasive Belt 80 Grit Aluminum Oxide

Product Description

The NORTON 78072727547 is a coated abrasive belt designed for precision material removal on narrow-profile workpieces and file belt tools. Running 0.25 inches wide and 24 inches long, this belt carries an 80-grit aluminum oxide abrasive at a medium grade, making it well suited for moderate stock removal and surface blending on metal and wood substrates. The closed-coat density packs abrasive grain tightly across the belt face for consistent cut and uniform scratch pattern. An X-weight rayon cloth backing delivers the flexibility and tensile strength needed to withstand the tension and heat generated during continuous operation. Licensed tradespeople and skilled fabricators working with narrow belt files and detail sanders will find this belt a dependable consumable for tight-tolerance grinding and finishing tasks.

This belt is appropriate for both wet and dry operation, giving users flexibility on the shop floor or in the field. The aluminum oxide abrasive performs reliably on ferrous and non-ferrous metals, hardwoods, and composites. The R283 series designation identifies this as part of a NORTON product line built for industrial and professional use. It is sold individually and is a direct consumable replacement for narrow-belt power file and detail grinding applications where consistent cut rate and grit uniformity are required.
