3M 340D Aluminum Oxide Film-Lok Single-Flex Cloth Abrasive Belt

3M™ cloth belt 340D is our open-coat premium-grade aluminum oxide cloth belt that provides durability for aggressive stock removal, resists loading and is suitable for a variety of applications on wood and metal. We recommended this belt for wide belt sanding, edge sanding or portable belt sanding. Fast-cutting aluminum oxide abrasive grains are resin-bonded to a durable X-weight cotton cloth backing to provide continuous cut and long-life. Our open-coat and load-resistant coating make this belt particularly favorable for sanding soft woods. Additionally, the washable backing is suitable for high production environments where the belt may need washing at intervals to remove soft wood resin or pitch buildup.
