Tru-maxx 7418 Abrasive Belt 60 Grit 3x48 in Aluminum Oxide

Product Description

The TRU-MAXX 7418 is a coated abrasive belt designed for aggressive material removal on belt sanders and stationary grinding equipment. It measures 3 inches wide by 48 inches long and is built around a closed-coat aluminum oxide abrasive on a polyester cloth backing rated at X-weight, making it durable under sustained pressure. At 60 grit, this belt falls in the medium grade range and is suited for rapid stock removal, weld blending, and surface prep on metals, wood, and composites. The dry-only operation rating keeps it appropriate for standard shop applications. Fabricators, metalworkers, and woodworkers are the primary installers and end users.

This belt is intended for dry sanding and grinding operations in fabrication shops, woodworking facilities, and general metalworking environments. The 3 inches by 48 inches format fits a common class of bench-top and floor-standing belt sanders. The 60-grit aluminum oxide construction handles initial shaping passes, scale removal, and weld seam blending before finer finishing grits are applied. The closed-coat configuration ensures dense abrasive coverage for consistent cut rate across the belt face.

Installation Notes
