Tru-maxx 7417 Abrasive Belt 240 Grit 2x72 in Aluminum Oxide

Product Description

The TRU-MAXX 7417 is a coated abrasive belt designed for use on belt sanders and power file machines in metalworking, woodworking, and fabrication applications. Measuring 2 inches wide by 72 inches long, it carries a 240-grit aluminum oxide abrasive in a closed-coat density on a heavyweight polyester cloth backing rated X-weight. The very fine grit rating makes it suited for finishing passes, light stock removal, and surface blending. At 0.18 pounds, it is a standard single-unit replacement belt for production and shop environments.

This belt fits belt sanders that accept 2 x 72 inch belts, a common size in metalworking shops, knife-making setups, and general fabrication. Typical uses include deburring metal parts, finishing welds, surface preparation before coating, and fine sanding of wood surfaces. The closed-coat construction keeps abrasive grains tightly packed across the full belt surface, which improves cut consistency during finishing work. It is well suited for professionals who need a reliable very fine finishing belt in a high-volume shop setting.
