Norton 78072762561 Abrasive Belt 120 Grit 2x30 in

Product Description

The NORTON 78072762561 is a coated abrasive belt designed for dry material removal and surface finishing on belt sanders and stationary grinders. Built on a heavy X-weight cloth backing with closed-coat aluminum oxide abrasive, this belt delivers consistent cut and a uniform finish across the contact zone. At 120 grit, it sits in the medium-grade range, making it well suited for intermediate stock removal, blending, and surface preparation on metal, wood, and composite materials. Trades and fabrication shops reach for this belt when transitioning between rough shaping and finish work.

This belt is intended for dry operation and fits standard 2 x 30 inch belt sander configurations common in light fabrication, HVAC ductwork prep, plumbing fitting work, and general metal finishing. The R228 series designation indicates a cloth-backed, closed-coat construction that resists loading on ferrous and non-ferrous metals as well as hardwoods. It is sold and packaged individually.

Installation Notes

Belt sander abrasive belts should be installed by a qualified operator following the equipment manufacturer's tensioning and tracking procedures. Power down and disconnect the sander from its power source before changing belts. Inspect the drive and idler wheels for wear or debris before installing a new belt. Do not exceed the machine's rated belt speed as marked on the equipment nameplate.
