Value Collection 801034-48297 Abrasive Belt 180 Grit

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 801034-48297 is a silicon carbide abrasive belt designed for precision finishing on a range of hard materials. Measuring 1 inch wide by 30 inches long, this belt runs at 180 grit, placing it in the very fine grade category. It features a closed-coat construction on a polyester cloth backing, which provides consistent abrasive coverage and flexibility during use. The belt supports both wet and dry operation, making it adaptable to different finishing environments. It is well suited for metalworking, woodworking, and surface preparation tasks where controlled material removal and a fine finish are required.

This abrasive belt is intended for use on 1 inch by 30 inch belt sanders and similar stationary or handheld belt grinding equipment. At 180 grit, it is typically used in finishing passes to refine surfaces after coarser stock removal has been completed. The wet or dry capability makes it appropriate for applications where coolant or water is introduced to manage heat and extend belt life. Tradespeople in metal fabrication, maintenance and repair, and surface finishing work are the primary users of this belt type.

Installation Notes

Belt installation should be performed with the sander or grinder powered off and unplugged. Confirm belt tracking alignment before resuming operation to prevent edge wear or belt walk. When operating wet, ensure the machine is rated for wet use before introducing coolant or water. Inspect the belt for tears or separation at the splice before each use and replace if damage is present.
