Product Details
The 3M™ Cloth Belt 341D measures 2" x 72" and features 60 grit aluminum oxide abrasive grains that are resin-bonded to a durable x-weight cotton cloth backing, providing continuous cut and long-life performance suited for more aggressive dry sanding applications. Designed for finishing on metal, its closed coat construction delivers a consistent, fine finish and is suitable for producing a grain pattern; the belt should not be used wet. Aluminum oxide mineral is widely favored among industrial professionals due to its cutting efficiency, durability, and long life, and it can be used on various materials including ferrous alloys in both woodworking and metalworking. The abrasive particles are securely bonded to the cloth backing with resin to withstand high heat and pressure. Abrasive belts come in different widths and lengths to fit various belt sanding tools for multiple applications on wood and metal. Wider belts are used with wide belt sanders for dimensioning or finishing wood panels, smoothing rough metal sheet edges, or adding grain patterns to stainless steel sheets, while medium-width belts fit edge sanders for sanding flat, narrow surfaces such as panel edges, and narrow belts are compatible with portable belt sanders for sanding or blending wood pieces like cabinet doors. The belts include splices such as film media splices, which use a joining film to minimize chatter marks, ensuring smooth running and consistent finishing, and sine wave splices with interlocking fingers that allow smooth travel over contact wheels, reduce hinging, and add joint strength. Warranty information and specific certifications or compliance details were not provided in the original description.
