Norton 78072763882 Abrasive Belt 120 Grit 6x60 in

Product Description

The NORTON 78072763882 is a coated abrasive belt designed for stationary belt sanders and similar abrasive machinery used in metalworking, woodworking, and general fabrication. Built on a heavyweight X-weight cloth backing, it delivers the rigidity and durability needed for aggressive stock removal and surface finishing in demanding shop environments. Running at 120 grit with a closed-coat aluminum oxide construction, this belt produces consistent scratch patterns and maintains cutting efficiency across extended use. It measures 6 inches wide and 60 inches long. Licensed tradespeople, machinists, and finishing professionals are the primary users.

This belt is suited for dry grinding and finishing applications on ferrous metals, non-ferrous metals, and wood surfaces. The R228 series designation identifies it as part of a performance abrasive line engineered for high-contact-area belt sanders operating under sustained load. Closed-coat construction maximizes abrasive grain coverage across the belt face, which supports faster material removal and a more uniform finish on flat workpieces. It is sold individually and is compatible with 6 x 60 inch belt sander configurations common in trade and industrial shop settings.

Key Features

• 120 grit aluminum oxide abrasive for medium-grade stock removal and surface prep

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit replacement for 6 x 60 inch coated abrasive belt sander applications requiring 120 grit aluminum oxide media in a closed-coat, cloth-backed format.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by the machine operator or maintenance technician. Power down and disconnect the belt sander from its power source before replacing the abrasive belt. Confirm belt tracking alignment and tension per the equipment manufacturer's guidelines before resuming operation. Inspect the platen and idler rollers for wear or debris that could damage the new belt.
