It measures 2 inches wide by 72 inches long and runs a 40-grit aluminum oxide abrasive in a closed-coat configuration on a polyester cloth backing rated X-weight. The coarse 40-grit cut is suited for rapid stock removal, weld blending, and surface conditioning on ferrous and non-ferrous metals as well as wood. This belt is rated for dry operation only. Fabricators, metalworkers, and woodworkers reach for this grit range when the goal is fast material removal before stepping up to finishing grits.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 7162 fits standard 2 x 72 inch belt sander and grinder machines commonly found in fabrication shops, maintenance departments, and trade workshops. The X-weight polyester cloth backing provides durability under high-tension and high-heat conditions typical of aggressive grinding passes. Closed-coat construction means the abrasive grain covers the full belt face, maximizing cut rate on each pass. This belt is intended for dry-use applications only and should not be used with cutting fluids or water.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e40-grit aluminum oxide abrasive for fast, coarse stock removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClosed-coat construction maximizes grain coverage and cut rate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eX-weight polyester cloth backing withstands high tension and heat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 x 72 inch size fits a wide range of standard belt sander and grinder machines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDry-use only rating keeps the abrasive bond intact during operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement abrasive belt for standard 2 x 72 inch belt sander and abrasive grinder machines used in metal fabrication, woodworking, and general maintenance applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eBelt installation should be performed with the machine unplugged or the power source locked out before handling. Verify the arrow or tracking direction printed on the belt backing aligns with the machine's belt travel direction before tensioning. Inspect the platen, contact wheel, and idler for wear or debris that could cause uneven belt tracking or premature failure. Always wear appropriate eye and hand protection when operating belt sanding equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBelt Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBelt Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 72 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Coarse\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbrasive Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbrasive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Coated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoat Density\u003c\/strong\u003e: Closed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBacking Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Polyester Cloth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBacking Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: X\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWet\/Dry Operation\u003c\/strong\u003e: Dry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.26 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31191507\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: TRU-MAXX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7162\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"TRU-MAXX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51730165891378,"sku":"7162","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e43807e80ce03b53e3d64157c597ea74.jpg?v=1788712852","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/tru-maxx-7162-abrasive-belt-40-grit-2x72-aluminum-oxide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
