Product Details
The 3M™ Cloth Belt 341D measures 2-1/2" x 60" and features 40 grit aluminum oxide abrasive grains resin-bonded to a durable x-weight cotton cloth backing, providing continuous cut and long-life performance for more aggressive dry sanding applications. It is designed for metal finishing with a closed coat construction that offers a consistent fine finish and is suitable for producing a grain pattern; this belt should not be run wet. The aluminum oxide mineral is widely used in industrial settings due to its cut-rate, durability, and long life, and is effective on a variety of materials including ferrous alloys in both woodworking and metalworking. The abrasive particles are bonded with resin to withstand high heat and pressure. This belt is compatible with various belt sanding tools of different widths and lengths, including wide belt sanders for dimensioning or finishing wood panels and sanding metal sheets, medium-width belts for edge sanders used on flat, narrow surfaces, and narrow belts for portable belt sanders for sanding or blending wood pieces like cabinet doors. The belt features options for splices such as film media splices that create a secure bond with minimal chatter marks, ensuring smooth operation and consistent finishing, and sine wave splices with interlocking fingers to travel smoothly over contact wheels, reduce hinging, and add strength to the joint, typically used for coarser applications. The product complies with relevant industrial standards, and 3M offers warranty terms for this abrasive belt.
