Built on a polyester cloth backing with an X-weight rating, it delivers the flexibility and tear resistance required for high-contact belt grinding and finishing applications. The zirconia alumina abrasive grain runs at 100 grit, placing it in the fine grade range — suited for blending, surface conditioning, and intermediate stock removal. Closed coat density ensures full abrasive coverage across the belt face, maximizing cut rate and surface contact. The belt measures 2.5 inches wide by 60 inches long and weighs 0.8 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis belt is a fit for stationary and portable belt sanders, grinders, and finishing machines used in metal fabrication shops, weld shops, HVAC duct fabrication, plumbing fitting prep, and general industrial maintenance. The R823P series is engineered for both wet and dry operation, making it compatible with coolant-assisted grinding setups as well as dry-run machines. Technicians and fabricators working with stainless steel, carbon steel, aluminum, and other hard metals will find the zirconia alumina grain handles heat and pressure without glazing prematurely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZirconia alumina abrasive grain for fast cut and extended belt life on metal and hard surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e100 grit fine grade for blending welds, removing mill scale, and intermediate surface finishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClosed coat density maximizes abrasive coverage for consistent material removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eX-weight polyester cloth backing resists tearing and flexing under high-contact grinding pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with wet and dry operating conditions for use with or without coolant\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2.5 x 60 inch dimension fits a wide range of stationary belt sanders and industrial grinders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit consumable for belt sanders and abrasive finishing machines that accept 2.5 x 60 inch belts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBelt installation should be performed with the machine powered off and unplugged or locked out per OSHA lockout\/tagout procedures. Verify belt tracking direction before startup — most coated abrasive belts have a preferred run direction indicated by an arrow on the inner surface. Confirm the machine's platen or contact wheel is free of debris before mounting. Inspect the belt splice for alignment and do not exceed the machine's rated belt speed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBelt Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBelt Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 60 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 100\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Fine\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbrasive Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Zirconia 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 Cloth\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBacking Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: X\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: R823P\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.8 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: 78072728688\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NORTON","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51541362475314,"sku":"78072728688","price":15.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/5d6cfda556b72dddcdbc234e97e456e2.jpg?v=1785873554","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/norton-78072728688-abrasive-belt-100-grit-2-1-2-x-60-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
