Tru-maxx 7040 Abrasive Belt 40 Grit 3/8x24 in Aluminum Oxide

Product Description

The TRU-MAXX 7040 is a coated abrasive belt designed for aggressive material removal on portable and stationary belt sanding equipment. It measures 3/8 inches wide by 24 inches long and runs a 40-grit aluminum oxide abrasive on a closed-coat, polyester cloth backing rated at X-weight. The coarse 40-grit designation makes it well suited for rapid stock removal, weld blending, and surface conditioning on metal, wood, and composite materials. Dry-use operation keeps the application straightforward for bench-mounted or handheld belt sanders in shop environments.

This belt fits narrow-profile belt sander configurations common in fabrication shops, HVAC sheet metal work, plumbing pipe prep, and general maintenance applications. The 3/8-inch width targets detail sanding on tight contours, tubing, and narrow workpieces where wider belts cannot reach. Tradespeople and maintenance technicians working with ferrous and non-ferrous metals will find the coarse grit effective for deburring, rust removal, and prepping surfaces for welding or coating.
