Tru-maxx 7079 Abrasive Belt 50 Grit 3/4 X 20-1/2 Inches

Product Description

The TRU-MAXX 7079 is a coated abrasive belt designed for aggressive material removal on portable and stationary belt sanders. At 50 grit, this belt falls in the coarse grade range, making it well-suited for rapid stock removal, weld blending, rust removal, and surface leveling on metal, wood, and composite materials. The belt measures 3/4 inches wide by 20-1/2 inches long and is constructed with an aluminum oxide abrasive grain on a polyester cloth backing rated at X-weight for added rigidity and durability. A closed coat density maximizes abrasive coverage across the belt face, delivering consistent cut rates throughout the belt's service life.

This belt is intended for dry operation only. It fits compact belt sanders and file belt tools commonly used in metal fabrication shops, maintenance and repair facilities, welding shops, and woodworking operations. The 3/4-inch width makes it a practical fit for detail work, contour sanding, and tight-clearance applications where wider belts cannot reach. Trade professionals in fabrication, pipefitting, and general maintenance commonly use this belt size for deburring and surface prep tasks between grinding and finishing stages.

Installation Notes

Belt sanders should be powered off and unplugged before changing abrasive belts.

Inspect drive rollers and platens for wear or debris before seating the new belt. This belt is rated for dry use only and should not be used with cutting fluids or water.
