Norton 78072728619 Abrasive Belt 80 Grit 2x48 in

Product Description

The NORTON 78072728619 is a coated abrasive belt designed for aggressive material removal on metal, weld seams, and fabricated components. Built on a polyester cloth backing with closed-coat zirconia alumina grain at 80 grit, this belt delivers consistent cut rate and durability under both wet and dry operating conditions. The R823P series construction uses zirconia alumina, a self-sharpening abrasive that fractures during use to expose fresh cutting edges, maintaining stock removal over the life of the belt. It measures 2 inches wide by 48 inches long and weighs 0.19 pounds. It is suited for use by metal fabricators, welders, and maintenance technicians running stationary or portable belt grinding equipment.

This belt is intended for use on bench-top belt grinders, file belt machines, and portable belt sanders commonly found in fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, and manufacturing environments. The 80 grit coarse cut makes it appropriate for weld blending, deburring, and stock removal on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Wet and dry operation compatibility gives it flexibility across a range of shop conditions and coolant setups.
