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 model features a P180 J-weight grade that balances flexibility and durability for effective sanding and finishing.
Designed specifically for use on backstand grinders, file belt tools, and benchtop motors, this belt ensures consistent performance across various equipment types.
Flexible Backing Benefits
The belt’s J-weight flexible cloth backing offers excellent conformability, making it ideal for blending and finishing contours and complex parts. This flexibility helps achieve smooth, precise results.
Its full-flex design supports detailed work on irregular surfaces, enhancing control and reducing the risk of damage during sanding or finishing processes.
Optimal Size And Format
Measuring 3 inches by 132 inches, this belt size fits a wide range of tools and applications. The Film-lok format ensures secure attachment and easy handling during use.
Each case contains 50 belts, packaged in sets of 25, providing ample supply for continuous work without frequent reordering.
Open Coat Construction
The open coat design helps evacuate sanding dust from the belt, resulting in a more aggressive cut and longer abrasive life. This feature boosts productivity by reducing downtime for belt changes.
This construction also prevents loading by allowing dust and debris to escape, making it especially effective on soft metals like aluminum, brass, bronze, and copper.
Durable Aluminum Oxide Abrasive
The tough aluminum oxide abrasive cuts fast and performs well on most metals, including carbon steel and stainless steel. This mineral is known for its durability and long-lasting performance.
Resin bonding maximizes abrasive life by holding the grains firmly in place, even under high heat and pressure, ensuring consistent sanding quality throughout the belt’s lifespan.
