Product Details
The 3M™ 340D cloth belt measures 37" x 60" and features a P180 grit aluminum oxide composition, specifically designed for use in industries such as primary wood and panel processing. This open coat premium grade cloth belt excels in durability and aggressive stock removal while resisting loading, making it suitable for a variety of applications including wide belt sanding, edge sanding, and portable belt sanding. The belt's fast-cutting aluminum oxide abrasive grains are resin-bonded to a durable cotton cloth backing, ensuring a continuous cut and extended life. Particularly effective for sanding soft woods due to its load-resistant coating, the washable backing is ideal for high production environments where regular cleaning may be necessary to eliminate resin or pitch buildup. The aluminum oxide mineral is favored by industrial professionals for its cutting efficiency, durability, and longevity, and it can be applied to a wide range of materials, including ferrous alloys, making it one of the most commonly used industrial abrasives. The strong resin bond withstands high heat and pressure, and the belt is compatible with various sanding tools, available in multiple widths and lengths to accommodate different applications on both wood and metal surfaces.
