Norton 78072784353 Abrasive Belt 240 Grit 4x24 Aluminum Oxide

Product Description

The NORTON 78072784353 is a coated abrasive belt designed for dry stock removal and finishing on a range of materials. Running 4 inches wide by 24 inches long, this belt fits standard 4 x 24 belt sanders used across metal fabrication, woodworking, and general surface prep applications. The 240 grit rating places it in the very fine grade range, making it suited for finish sanding, light deburring, and surface smoothing rather than aggressive material removal. The aluminum oxide abrasive grain is bonded in a closed coat pattern to a heavyweight X-weight cloth backing, delivering consistent cut and durability under sustained load.

This belt is a practical choice for trade professionals and shop technicians who need a reliable very fine grit option for final-pass finishing work. It performs well on ferrous and non-ferrous metals, painted surfaces, and hardwoods. The R228 series designation indicates it is part of a standardized production line suited for industrial and shop environments. Dry operation only — not intended for wet sanding applications.
