3M 7010513707 | 984F x 60+ Grit x 168.000" OAL Precision Shaped Ceramic Cloth Belt

Description

The 3M 7010513707 Cubitron II 984F II is a professional-grade 4" x 168" ceramic cloth belt made for quick, consistent metal removal and reliable finishing. In comparison to traditional abrasives, precision-shaped ceramic grains provide self-sharpening performance, which maintains cut rate and extends life. This belt, rated at 60+ grit, is ideal for weld blending, stock removal, and surface preparation in conjunction with a 60 grit sanding disc or grinding wheel. The YF-weight polyester cloth backing strikes a balance between flexibility and strength, making the belt appropriate for both handheld and automated belt applications.
Closed-coat construction increases abrasive contact, resulting in more predictable finishes and fewer changeouts. A Film-Lok splice creates a secure, low-profile joint that operates smoothly in continuous production and robotic systems. The built-in grinding aid allows the 3M 60-grit sandpaper is equivalent to running cooler, reducing heat tint and protecting the metallurgy of stainless and alloy components. The single-flex design improves contact with contoured components, resulting in a uniform finish during polishing and finishing operations. When you need the cutting speed of a 60 grit sanding disc with the durability and consistency of Cubitron II ceramic, choose the 3M 7010513707. This 3M cubitron 984F II ceramic belt reduces downtime, increases part count per belt, and provides a controlled finish for downstream processes.

Product Features and Benefits

Precision-Shaped Ceramic Grains

Self-sharpening grains keep the 3M 7010513707 cutting aggressively like a 60 grit sanding disc while extending usable belt life.

60+ Grit for Balanced Removal and Finish

The 60+ grit formulation provides the removal rate of a 60 grit grinding wheel with a controlled surface ready for finishing or polishing.

YF-Weight Polyester Backing

Robust backing supports continuous runs and automated cells, ensuring the 3M cubitron 984F ii ceramic belt resists tearing under pressure.

Film-Lok Splice for Smooth Operation

Reliable Film-Lok splice minimizes vibration and splice failures, so production runs with this 3M 7010513707 belt stay uninterrupted.

Cooling Grinding Aid

Integrated grinding aid helps reduce heat buildup compared with conventional 3M 60 grit sandpaper, lowering the risk of discoloration on sensitive alloys.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the 3M 7010513707 best used for?

The 3M 7010513707 is perfect for weld blending, deburring and surface preparation where a 60 grit sanding disc is typically used.

How does the 60+ grit impact surface finish?

The 60+ grit on this 3M cubitron 984F ii ceramic belt balances aggressive stock removal with a finish suitable for follow-on polishing steps.

Can I use this belt in automated belt grinders?

Yes, the Film-Lok splice and YF-weight backing make the 3M 7010513707 suitable for continuous automated and robotic applications.

Will this belt reduce heat tint on stainless steel?

Yes, the built-in grinding aid helps the 3M 60 grit sandpaper equivalent run cooler, reducing heat tint and preserving metal properties.

What is 60 grit sandpaper used for in metalworking?

In metalwork, 60 grit, as with this 3M 7010513707 is used for medium-to-heavy stock removal, weld blending and preparing surfaces for finer finishes.
