Norton 78072733180 Abrasive Belt 240 Grit 3/4 in

Product Description

The NORTON 78072733180 is a coated abrasive belt designed for precision surface finishing and material removal in trade and industrial applications. Built on the R228 series platform, this belt uses aluminum oxide abrasive material bonded to a flexible backing, delivering consistent cut and finish across a wide range of substrates. At 240 grit, it falls in the very fine grade range, making it well suited for finish sanding, light stock removal, and surface prep before coating or painting. The belt measures 3/4 inches in width and weighs 0.2 pounds. It is a single-piece unit packaged individually.

This abrasive belt is used in stationary and portable belt sander applications across metalworking, woodworking, and fabrication trades. The 240 grit rating makes it appropriate for final-pass sanding on wood, metal, and composite surfaces where a smooth finish is required before priming, staining, or coating. Electricians, pipefitters, sheet metal workers, and general fabricators commonly use belts in this size and grit range for deburring, surface conditioning, and weld seam blending in tight or narrow work areas.

Key Features

• Aluminum oxide abrasive material for consistent cut on metal, wood, and composites

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement or consumable abrasive belt for belt sanders and finishing machines that accept 3/4 inch wide belts. Verify belt length compatibility with your specific sander model before ordering, as the input data does not specify belt length.

Installation Notes

Coated abrasive belts should be installed by a qualified technician or experienced operator following the sander manufacturer's guidelines. Power down and disconnect the sander from its power source before changing the belt. Verify belt tracking and tension before resuming operation. Do not exceed the maximum RPM rating of the sander for the belt size being used.
