Key features

• Sanding belt is compatible with portable belt sanders
• Bi-directional belt splice allows the belt to run in both directions, which simplifies mounting and maximizes sanding life
• Aluminum oxide grit is a common choice for general-purpose grinding of wood, metal, fiberglass, and plastic, and is more durable than silicon carbide grit
• Open coat abrasive grains cover 50 to 75 percent of the surface to reduce clogging and promote flexibility for abrading difficult-to-sand materials
• X-weight cloth backing is flexible and lightweight, strong enough to carry coarse grits, and is more durable and tear resistant than paper backing

The Norton sanding belt for portable belt sanders is suitable for general-purpose grinding of wood, metal, fiberglass, and plastic. The bi-directional belt splice allows the belt to run in both directions to simplify mounting and maximize sanding life. The aluminum oxide grit is one of the most common choices for general-purpose grinding, and is more durable than silicon carbide grit. The belt has an open coat, which resists clogging and promotes flexibility. Open coat abrasives produce a rougher finish when abrading difficult-to-sand materials because the abrasive grains are spaced farther apart than they are on a closed coat product. Cloth backing withstands repeated flexing for maximum contouring to odd shapes and corners, and is more durable and tear-resistant than paper backing. The backing of this belt is made from X-weight cloth backing, which is a flexible and lightweight material that is strong enough to carry coarse grits. Recommended Grit Sizes 120 grit (fine) For surface preparation before applying a stain, primer, or sealer 80 grit (medium) For light sanding of surfaces or moderate removal of rust or coatings 50 grit (coarse) For heavy sanding and stripping 36 grit (ex
