The 3M 1/2" x 12" 50 Grit Coated Ceramic Aluminum Oxide Medium Abrasive Belt utilizes a ceramic aluminum oxide grain blend that outperforms standard aluminum oxide abrasives in terms of cut-rate efficiency. Equipped with a heavyweight polyester backing, the belt is capable of withstanding high-pressure applications and can be operated in both wet and dry conditions. Additionally, the belt features a grinding aid designed to minimize heat generation. A durable resin bond construction resists heat-induced deterioration.
