3M 7010514736 | 984F x 80+ Grit x 98.406" OAL Precision Shaped Ceramic Cloth Belt

Description

The 3M 7010514736 Cubitron II 984F belt is made for production environments that require consistent finish quality and efficient material removal. Precision-shaped ceramic grains in the 80+ grit formulation sustain cutting performance and reduce dressing frequency compared with conventional abrasives. Constructed on a YF-weight polyester cloth backing, the belt resists stretch and maintains accurate tracking under prolonged use. Closed-coat abrasive placement increases active cutting area to deliver faster stock removal while producing a uniform surface for downstream operations. Film-Lok splice technology provides a low-profile, durable joint that minimizes vibration and reduces downtime on continuous systems. Single-flex construction allows dependable conformity to platen diameters, improving contact and finish repeatability on medium-to-large parts. At 98.406" (2499.512 mm) overall length and 4.0" (101.6 mm) width, the belt fits platen and conveyorized finishing machines for higher throughput. Applications include grinding, deburring, surface preparation, polishing and finishing where a 3M cubitron 80 grit solution is required. Compared to a standard 80 grit sanding disc, this 3M 984F belt offers superior life, better heat management and more consistent part-to-part results. For fabricators seeking a production-grade cubitron 984F II ceramic belt, the 3M 7010514736 balances aggressive cut with controlled finish and long service life.

Product Features and Benefits

Precision-Shaped Ceramic Grain 80+ Grit

Self-sharpening ceramic grains sustain sharp cutting edges to maximize removal rate and extend life versus conventional 80 grit sanding discs.

YF-Weight Polyester Cloth Backing

Robust backing resists elongation and ensures stable tracking for the 98.406" OAL belt under continuous production loads.

Closed-Coat Abrasive Coverage

High abrasive density increases active contact area for faster material removal and a consistent finish compared with open-coat media.

Film-Lok Splice for Smooth, Durable Joints

Low-profile Film-Lok splice reduces vibration and splice failures, improving uptime on platen and conveyorized finishing systems.

Production-Sized Dimensions

Generous width and length make the 3M 7010514736 suitable for medium-to-large machines handling higher throughput and larger workpieces.

Frequently Asked Questions
