The 3M 7010512985 is a compact, high-performance 984F Cubitron II ceramic cloth belt made for precision metalworking and finishing. This 60+ grit belt delivers rapid stock removal with a controlled finish, making the 3M cubitron 984F II ceramic belt ideal for production deburring and surface preparation. At 21.0” OAL and 0.5” width, the belt fits narrow-arc and specialty finishing operations while maintaining a consistent cut across the entire length. Built on a YF-weight polyester cloth backing, the 3M 7010512985 offers excellent tensile strength and tracking for single-pass operations. The closed-coat construction concentrates abrasive coverage to maximize cutting life versus conventional abrasives such as a 60 grit sanding disc. A Fabri-Lok splice provides a reliable joint for automated runs and manual finishing alike, reducing splice failures. Precision-shaped ceramic grains stay sharp and fracture to expose fresh cutting edges, improving efficiency compared with standard grits like 3M 60 grit sandpaper. Single-flex construction allows the belt to conform to contoured profiles and specialty fixtures without tearing. The red color family and robust build make this 60 grit grinding wheel alternative easy to identify and integrate into tool rooms. Overall, the 3M 7010512985 offers a durable, high-value solution for polishing, grinding, blending and surface prep in demanding metalworking environments.
Precision Shaped Ceramic Grain
Shaped ceramic abrasives on the 3M 7010512985 maintain cutting performance and extend life compared with conventional abrasives on the 3M cubitron 984F II ceramic belt.
60+ Grit, Fast Cut with Controlled Finish
60+ grit specification provides aggressive material removal while preserving surface integrity relative to a 60 grit sanding disc or 60 grit grinding wheel.
Compact 21.0" OAL × 0.5" Width
Small form factor fits tight tooling and specialty finishing fixtures while delivering the performance expected of the 3M 984F belt.
Durable YF-Weight Polyester Backing
Polyester cloth backing with YF weight gives strength and dimensional stability for single-flex use across deburring and polishing tasks with the cubitron 984F II ceramic belt.
Fabri-Lok Splice for Reliable Operation
Fabric splice ensures smooth joints and dependable life in continuous or automated applications, reducing downtime compared to weaker splices.
