3M 7010511505 | 984F x 60+ Grit x 18.000" OAL Precision Shaped Ceramic Cloth Belt

Description

The 3M 7010511505 Cubitron II 984F ceramic belt is made for narrow-format precision grinding and finish work on metal components. This 18.0" overall length and 1.0" width make the belt ideal for file belt sanders, manual backstands, and confined-profile tasks. Precision-shaped ceramic grains in the 60+ grit structure provide fast stock removal while maintaining a consistent finish for downstream polishing. A YF-weight polyester cloth backing supplies high tensile strength and dimensional stability under repeated flexing and medium pressure. Closed-coat abrasive placement maximizes cutting area to reduce loading and extend belt life relative to conventional abrasives. The Fabri-Lok splice forms a smooth, robust joint that minimizes vibration and splice failures during continuous small-belt operation. Single-flex construction allows this 3M cubitron 984F II ceramic belt to conform to small platen diameters for repeatable surface contact. Applications include weld blending, deburring, edge finishing, profile shaping and surface preparation prior to coating or assembly. Operators benefit from improved heat control, fewer belt changes and predictable wear compared with typical 60 grit sanding disc alternatives. For shops requiring a compact, high-performance 3M 7010511505 solution, this belt delivers professional-grade cut, control and life.

Product Features and Benefits

Narrow-Format Precision (1.0" / 25.4 mm)

The 1.0" width of the 3M 7010511505 enables access to tight slots and profiles where wider belts or 60 grit grinding wheels cannot reach.

Precision-Shaped Ceramic Grain 60+ Grit

Self-sharpening ceramic grains maintain cutting performance for rapid stock removal and consistent finishes compared with standard 60 grit media.

YF-Weight Polyester Cloth Backing

Durable backing resists stretch and preserves tracking stability under repeated flexing on file belt sanders and manual backstands.

Closed-Coat Abrasive Coverage

Dense grain placement increases material removal per pass and reduces loading for longer productive life in detail work.

Fabri-Lok Splice for Smooth Operation

The Fabri-Lok splice provides a low-profile, high-strength joint that minimizes vibration and downtime in continuous small-belt applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the primary use of the 3M 7010511505?

The 3M 7010511505 is made for narrow-profile grinding, deburring, weld blending and surface prep on small or detailed parts.

Which tools are compatible with this 3M cubitron 984F II ceramic belt?

Its 18" length and 1" width fit file belt sanders, manual backstands and many compact bench or handheld belt tools.

How does the Fabri-Lok splice improve belt reliability?

Fabri-Lok creates a smooth, robust joint that reduces vibration and splice failure, increasing uptime on continuous small-belt runs.

How does this belt compare to a 60 grit sanding disc?

Compared with a 60 grit sanding disc, the 3M 984F offers better heat control, longer life and faster removal in tight-format grinding tasks.

What is 60 grit sandpaper used for?

The 60-grit sandpaper is used for moderate-to-heavy stock removal, initial shaping, weld blending, and aggressive surface prep, applications well matched to this 60+ grit belt.
