Tru-maxx A018893 Abrasive Belt 0.5x18 in Aluminum Oxide Coarse

Product Description

The TRU-MAXX A018893 is a non-woven aluminum oxide abrasive belt designed for use with small belt sanders and inline power tools. Measuring 0.5 inches wide and 18 inches in overall length, this coarse-grade belt is suited for aggressive material removal, deburring, and surface preparation on metal, wood, and composite materials. The flexible backing conforms to contoured surfaces and withstands both wet and dry operating conditions, making it a versatile choice for shop and field applications. Weighing 0.5 pounds per unit, it is lightweight and easy to handle during tool changes.

This belt is commonly used by machinists, pipefitters, fabricators, and maintenance technicians who work with small-format belt sanding tools. The 0.5-inch width fits compact file belt sanders and similar handheld abrasive tools used for weld blending, edge finishing, and light stock removal. Its wet and dry compatibility makes it appropriate for both dry grinding operations and applications where coolant or cutting fluid is present.
