Product Description
- Heavyweight cloth backing is especially suited for coarser grades on wide belt and edge sanding applications
- Open coat construction and anti-static treatment reduce loading for enhanced cut-rate and optimal abrasive life in woodworking applications
- Premium aluminum oxide offers improved cut and abrasive life
- Resin bond withstands high heat and pressure for longer service life
- Washable backing is suitable for sanding wood with a lot of pitch/resin (belts load quickly) such as pine
Fast-cutting aluminum oxide abrasive grains are resin-bonded to a heavyweight cloth backing to provide you with continuous cut and long-life performance, even under high heat and pressure.
3M Cloth Belt 370DZ resists premature loading and maintains effective cut with its open coat construction and anti-static treatment. Reduced static on the belt optimizes dust collection when used with an efficient dust collection system. We manufacture this belt with a washable backing for high production environments where washing may be required at intervals to remove pitch buildup from soft woods such as pine. If washing the belt, the product should be taken off the machine and washed offline. The product should be hung on a rack and allowed to thoroughly dry before using it again.
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 both woodworking and 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.
Abrasive belts come in many different widths and lengths and are used on a variety of different belt sanding machines for many different applications on both wood and metal. At 3M we offer a broad selection of belts to fit most any industrial belt sander. Wider belts are used with wide belt sanders to dimension or finish wood panels, smooth rough cut edges of metal sheets, or add a grain pattern to stainless steel sheets. Medium-width belts fit onto edge sanders for sanding flat, narrow surfaces such as panel edges; and narrow belts are used with portable belt sanders for sanding or leveling joint areas of wood pieces.
Belts come with various splices that join the belt ends. A film media splice achieves a secure bond with a joining film that minimizes chatter marks, ensures a smooth running belt, and produces consistent finishing results. A sine wave splice is constructed of interlocking fingers that enable the splice to travel smoothly over contact wheels, reduce hinging, and provide added strength to the joint area. Sine wave splices are typically used for coarser grades and wide belts as well as on belts that are going to be washed.

Precise P150 Y-weight Grade
This belt features a P150 Y-weight grade, offering a balance between aggressive material removal and smooth finish. The grade is suited for woodworking and metalworking tasks requiring moderate abrasion.
Using this specific grade helps maintain control over the sanding process, ensuring you get the right surface texture without over-sanding or damaging the material.
Optimal 52 Inch Size
The belt measures 52 inches by 103 inches, fitting a variety of wide belt and edge sanding machines. This size supports efficient sanding of large surfaces and edges with ease.
Its dimensions make it suitable for panel sanding, edge smoothing, and finishing wood or metal sheets, providing flexibility across different industrial sanding setups.
Reliable Film-lok Technology
Equipped with Film-lok technology, this belt uses a film media splice that creates a secure bond. This reduces chatter marks and ensures smooth operation during sanding.
The Film-lok splice contributes to consistent finishing results and extends the belt’s service life by minimizing joint wear, especially important for high-production environments.
Convenient Case Pack Count
This product comes as a case of 5 belts, providing a ready supply for ongoing sanding projects. Having multiple belts on hand reduces downtime and keeps your workflow steady.
Buying in a pack also offers cost efficiency and ensures you have the right belt size and grade available when needed for various sanding machines and tasks.
