Tru-maxx 7348 Abrasive Belt 40 Grit 10x70.5 in Aluminum Oxide

Product Description

The TRU-MAXX 7348 is a coated abrasive belt designed for aggressive material removal on wide belt sanders and finishing machines. Running at 40 grit, this is a coarse-grade belt suited for rapid stock removal, weld blending, and surface prep work on metal or wood substrates. The belt measures 10 inches wide by 70.5 inches long and is built on a polyester cloth backing rated at X-weight, giving it the stiffness and tear resistance needed for heavy industrial use. The closed-coat aluminum oxide abrasive layer provides consistent cutting action across the full belt surface. Dry operation only. Weight is approximately 1.27 pounds per belt.

This belt fits wide belt sanding machines that accept a 10 x 70.5-inch belt. It is commonly used in metal fabrication shops, woodworking facilities, and general manufacturing environments where fast, aggressive surface conditioning is required. At 40 grit coarse grade, it is typically the first pass in a multi-stage sanding sequence, removing mill scale, heavy scratches, weld spatter, or rough-sawn surface texture before finer grits are applied. Dry operation makes it compatible with standard ambient-exhaust sanding setups.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machine operator familiar with the sanding equipment manufacturer's belt-tracking and tensioning procedures. Power down and lock out the machine before changing belts. Verify belt direction arrow matches the machine drive direction before tensioning. Inspect the platen and contact drum for wear or debris before seating the new belt.
