3M Cloth Belt 302D is an aluminum oxide belt with open coat construction and a flexible J-weight backing that conforms well for sanding contours and complex parts. It is best-suited for light grinding, finishing, deburring and setting the grain on carbon steel and stainless steel, as well as soft metals like aluminum, brass, bronze and copper.
- Tough aluminum oxide abrasive cuts fast and performs well on most metals
- Flexible cloth backing provides ideal conformability for blending and finishing contours and complex parts
- Open coat construction helps evacuate sanding dust from the belt for a more aggressive cut and longer abrasive life, which means greater productivity
- Suitable for dry metalworking applications
- Resin bonded belt maximizes abrasive life
- Designed for use on backstand grinders, file belt tools and benchtop motors

PRODUCT FAQ
-
What is the 3M™ Cloth Belt 302D made of?
The abrasive cloth in the belt is composed of aluminum oxide, while the cloth backing itself is a J-weight material.
-
What sizes are available for this belt?
This particular product comes in a size of 2 inches by 132 inches, which makes it ideal for long and narrow surfaces.
-
How many belts come in an inner package and outer case if I decide to purchase them that way?
Each inner package contains 25 belts, whereas each outer case has twice as much at around 50 belts per box.
-
Is there any specific machine or tool I must use with these belts?
.: Yes! The 'Film-lok' feature makes it indispensable for heavy-duty sanding applications that generally require high torque on start-up, such as woodworking or metalworking. You’ll most likely need compatible machinery like angle grinders suited specifically to Fabric-backed sanding discs with film backings.
-
Can they work on painted surfaces?
Absolutely! These best performing clothed abrasive could also be utilized rather appropriately for paint stripping jobs on uneven surfaces because of its full-flex design allows easy adaptation along curves & contours.
3M™ Cloth Belt 302D features an open coat construction that helps to channel sanding swarf and dust away from the belt and workpiece, resulting in better visibility and belt performance. The abrasive and backing are resin bonded to ensure that the belt runs until the abrasive is completely worn. This belt is ideal for operations that require added flexibility.
Made with Durable, Fast-Cutting Aluminum OxideAluminum oxide mineral is a popular choice among industrial professionals due to 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 ConstructionLoading 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.
- Open coat construction helps channel sanding swarf and dust away from the belt and workpiece
- Resin bonded abrasive and backing ensure the belt runs until the abrasive is completely worn
- Recommended for operations that require added flexibility
- Aluminum oxide mineral is durable, fast-cutting, and long-lasting
- Open coat construction prevents loading and provides a more aggressive cut
- Ideal for use on soft metals like aluminum, brass, bronze, and copper
