Combine efficient cutting performance with high durability by choosing this sanding belt from 3M. It's coated with 3M's precision-shaped triangular ceramic grain, which self-sharpens as it fractures to produce fresh cutting points for a quick and efficient performance. Its X-weight poly-cotton backing makes it flexible enough to tackle hard-to-reach or awkwardly shaped areas on your workpiece. The belt features a standard P80 grit size to provide reliable cutting strength with a uniform finish.

• Diverts cutting heat away from the belt and work material, preventing discolouration and stress cracks
• Low operating temperature for long-term use and fewer replacements
• Fast and efficient performance needs less operator pressure for comfortable use

• Metalworking
• Dimensioning parts
• Blending processing marks

Commonly called sanding belts, abrasive bels are used with belt sanders for heavy-duty sanding applications. Belt sanders are used for smoothing certain surfaces or removing paint or varnish. They are suited to heavy-duty applications, or applications where a level of uniformity is required that can't be guaranteed by hand sanding techniques using conventional sandpaper. This belt is particularly suited for use on stainless steel and metal allows for metalworking processes such as deburring and blending.

They are commonly used for;

• Dimensioning parts and metal sheets
• Removing material and wields
• Setting grain in stainless steel

Yes – this abrasive belt is made from durable ceramic grain, which cuts fast. This makes it ideal for multiple stages of metalworking and lets you reduce the number of steps in your process to complete projects quickly.
