3M 7010511997 | 984F x 60+ Grit x 78.750" OAL Precision Shaped Ceramic Cloth Belt

Description

The 3M 7010511997 is a high-volume surface preparation and finishing belt made of cubitron 984F II ceramic material. This belt, with an overall length of 78.75" and a width of 6.0", is designed for medium- to long-reach conveyor and fixture systems that require consistent coverage. With 60+ precision-shaped ceramic grains, the belt removes stock quickly and leaves a controlled finish comparable to a 60 grit sanding disc. The YF-weight polyester cloth backing offers excellent dimensional stability, withstanding stretch and tear under heavy loads. When working with stainless steel, carbon steel, and exotic alloys, closed-coat construction provides abrasive coverage while reducing loading. The Film-Lok splice ensures seam integrity and consistent performance in continuous automated or hand-held finishing applications. The single-flex design ensures secure tracking on drums and spindles while producing repeatable results in grinding and deburring tasks. This 3M cubitron 984f ii ceramic belt is ideal for aggressive material removal when combined with a 60 grit grinding wheel or 3m 60 grit sandpaper. In high-demand metalworking operations, use 3M 7010511997 to reduce cycle times, belt changes, and operating costs. Choose this belt when you need a long-lasting abrasive that combines aggressive cutting with a consistent part-to-part finish.

Product Features and Benefits

60+ Precision-Shaped Ceramic Grain

Precision grains on the 3M 7010511997 offer aggressive cutting power and a longer life compared with conventional 60 grit sanding disc options.

78.75" × 6.0" Format for Production Lines

The extended 78.75" overall length and 6.0" width suit belt conveyors and fixtures, improving throughput with the 3M cubitron 984F II ceramic belt.

YF-Weight Polyester Cloth Backing

Robust YF backing resists distortion during heavy grinding, ensuring the 3M 7010511997 remains stable under 60 grit grinding wheel-level workloads.

Film-Lok Splice for Seam Strength

The Film-Lok splice increases joint reliability in continuous operations, reducing downtime and seam failures versus older splice types.

Closed-Coat Design to Minimize Loading

Closed-coat construction reduces loading and glazing during polishing and finishing, maintaining a consistent cut when replacing 3m 60 grit sandpaper.

Frequently Asked Questions

What applications is 3M 7010511997 best suited for?

3M 7010511997 is ideal for surface preparation, grinding, deburring and finishing in conveyorized and handheld metalworking stations using a 3m cubitron 984f ii ceramic belt.

Can this belt replace a 60 grit sanding disc in my process?

Yes, the 60+ grit performance of the 3M 7010511997 provides faster stock removal and longer service life compared to a standard 60 grit sanding disc.

Is the 3M 984F compatible with 60 grit grinding wheel tasks?

The belt performs similarly for aggressive material removal and blending tasks where a 60 grit grinding wheel would normally be used, with less frequent changes.

What backing and splice does this belt use?

This 3M cubitron 984F II ceramic belt uses durable YF-weight polyester backing and a Film-Lok splice for improved seam reliability in production use.

What is 60 grit sandpaper used for?

The 60-grit sandpaper is used for aggressive stock removal and heavy deburring; the 3M 7010511997 delivers that capability in a long-life belt form for high-volume work.
