Built with Added Flexibility
3M Cloth Belt 302D has an open coat construction that helps channel sanding swarf and dust away from the belt and workpiece for better visibility and belt performance. The abrasive and backing are resin bonded to keep the belt running until the abrasive is completely worn. We recommend you select this belt for operations that require added flexibility.Made with Durable, Fast-Cutting Aluminum Oxide
Aluminum oxide mineral is a popular choice among industrial professionals because of its cut-rate, durability, and long life. It can be used on a wide variety of materials in metalworking, including ferrous alloys, and is the most commonly used industrial abrasive. The abrasive particles are adhered to the cloth backing with resin, creating a strong bond that withstands high heat and pressure.The Benefits of Open-Coat Construction
Loading occurs when swarf or paint dust clogs the surface of the belt and the abrasive points, rendering the belt ineffective. Open coat construction means the abrasive grains are spaced slightly apart so that dust and debris have an outlet rather than loading the abrasive. These attributes make 3M Cloth Belt 302D great for use on soft metals like aluminum, brass, bronze and copper. Additionally, the open coat construction provides a more aggressive cut than a comparable closed coat abrasive of the same grade.Trusted 3M Cloth Belt
The 3M Cloth Belt 302D is a reliable choice for metalworking tasks. This belt features the exact model 302D and brand 3M, ensuring consistent quality and performance for professionals.
Its design suits backstand grinders and benchtop motors, making it versatile for various workshop setups. The belt’s J-weight backing adds flexibility for detailed work.
Precise P180 J-weight Grade
This belt uses the P180 grade, providing a fine abrasive surface ideal for finishing and blending. The J-weight cloth backing offers added flexibility, helping the belt conform to complex shapes.
Such a grade is perfect for light grinding and deburring on metals like carbon steel and stainless steel, ensuring smooth, controlled results.
Ideal 1-1/2 Inch Size
Measuring 1-1/2 inches by 42 inches, this belt fits many standard sanding tools. The size allows for precise control while working on small to medium-sized parts.
Its length supports continuous use on file belt tools and benchtop motors, making it practical for extended projects without frequent belt changes.
Film-lok Full-flex Format
The Film-lok technology ensures the abrasive stays firmly attached to the cloth backing, enhancing durability. Full-flex construction means the belt bends easily without cracking or breaking.
This format is especially useful when sanding contours or complex parts, allowing the belt to maintain contact with uneven surfaces for consistent results.
Convenient Case Pack
Supplied as a case of 200 belts, this pack size supports high-volume or professional use. Having a large quantity on hand reduces downtime and keeps work flowing smoothly.
The bulk packaging is ideal for workshops and industrial settings where frequent belt replacement is necessary, ensuring you’re always prepared.
