3M 7010514438 | 984F x 36+ Grit x 48.000" OAL Precision Shaped Ceramic Cloth Belt

Description

The 3M 7010514438 cubitron 984F II ceramic belt is made for heavy-duty metal finishing where speed and repeatable results matter. This precision-shaped ceramic belt measures 48.0" in overall length by 4.0" in width and is suited to platen grinders, bench motors and compact conveyor systems. Precision-shaped ceramic grains deliver a self-sharpening cutting action that sustains high removal rates on stainless and carbon steels. The 36+ grit formulation is optimized to work alongside a 36 grit sanding disc for weld blending, shaping and aggressive deburring. YF-weight polyester cloth backing provides superior tensile strength and tear resistance for consistent tracking under pressure. Closed-coat construction and an engineered grinding aid reduce loading and heat, producing cooler passes and longer belt life. Film-Lok splice technology creates a low-profile, high-strength joint that reduces snags and downtime in continuous operations. Single-flex backing allows the belt to conform to contoured parts while maintaining cut consistency and predictable finish quality. Color-coded red simplifies identification and stock control on busy production floors and maintenance carts. Overall, the 3M 7010514438 Cubitron 984F II ceramic belt lowers cost-per-part by combining fast stock removal, extended life and dependable finishing performance.
