Norton 78072762224 Abrasive Belt 100 Grit 2x132 Inches

Product Description

The NORTON 78072762224 is a coated abrasive belt designed for dry grinding, blending, and finishing applications on metal, wood, and composite surfaces. Running at 100 grit, this belt falls in the fine grade range, making it suited for surface refinement and stock removal where a smooth finish is the goal. The R228 series construction features an aluminum oxide abrasive bonded to a heavyweight X-weight cloth backing with a closed coat density, delivering consistent cut and long belt life under production conditions. Fabricators, machinists, and metalworkers install this belt on stationary or portable belt grinders and sanders as part of regular surface prep workflows.

This abrasive belt is intended for dry-only operation and fits belt grinders and finishing machines that accept a 2-inch wide by 132-inch long belt. The 100-grit, fine-grade aluminum oxide abrasive is a practical choice for intermediate finishing passes on ferrous and non-ferrous metals, wood, and similar hard materials. The closed coat construction maximizes abrasive coverage across the belt face, supporting efficient material removal and a uniform scratch pattern. It is commonly used in fabrication shops, maintenance and repair operations, and custom metalworking environments where consistent surface quality is required.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified operator familiar with abrasive belt equipment. Power down and lock out the machine before removing the worn belt or installing a new one. Confirm belt tracking and tension per the machine manufacturer's guidelines before resuming operation. Inspect the belt for tears or delamination prior to each use and replace immediately if damage is found.
