Description
The 3M 7010514866 Cubitron 984F II Ceramic Belt is a highly specialized abrasive designed for tight access, intricate metalworking, and detailed finishing. Sized at a compact 0.5" x 34.0" with a 60+ grit, this narrow belt offers the aggressive cutting power of a large abrasive in a precise format, outperforming a standard 60 grit sanding disc on small parts. It harnesses 3M’s advanced Precision Shaped Ceramic technology, where the grains continually fracture to maintain sharpness, ensuring fast stock removal and superior life when working with stainless steel, aerospace alloys, and other hard metals. The robust YF-Weight polyester cloth backing provides necessary durability for high-speed operation, and the closed-coat grain density ensures maximum material contact. An integrated grinding aid minimizes heat buildup, which is crucial for preventing heat tint and deformation during detailed deburring and finishing. Unlike previous models, this narrow 3M cubitron 984F ii ceramic belt features a secure Fabri-Lok splice, providing reliable joint integrity for continuous production runs.
Product Features and Benefits
Narrow 0.5" Width
The precise half-inch width allows the 3M 7010514866 belt to access and deburr intricate geometries and confined spaces, a task difficult for a typical sanding disc.
Aggressive 60+ Grit Performance
The 60+ grit level is perfectly balanced for rapid material removal and achieving an initial smooth finish on metals, addressing the general applications of sandpaper.
Strong Fabri-Lok Splice
This textile splice ensures joint reliability and minimal bumping on high-speed contact wheels for smooth operation of the 3M cubitron 984F ii ceramic belt.
Durable YF-Weight Backing
The robust polyester cloth backing resists edge tear and wear, supporting the aggressive cutting action of the ceramic grains.
Self-Sharpening Precision Ceramic Grain
The unique grain structure delivers a continuous fast cut rate throughout the life of the belt, significantly outlasting conventional sandpapers.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the primary benefit of the narrow 0.5" width for this 3M ceramic belt?
The small size is optimized for precision deburring, blending, and finishing in tight or restricted access areas.
How does the Fabri-Lok splice differ from the Film-Lok splice?
The Fabri-Lok is a robust textile-based splice, providing strong, reliable performance particularly suitable for narrower belts.
Is the 60+ grit appropriate for surface preparation before welding?
Yes, the 60+ grit is ideal for aggressive cleaning and blending, making it superior to any industrial 60 grit sanding belt for metal preparation.
What metals is the 3M 7010514866 belt best suited for?
Due to the integrated grinding aid, it performs exceptionally well on stainless steel, cobalt chrome, and other heat-sensitive exotic alloys.
What is 60 grit sandpaper used for in professional metalworking applications?
It is used for moderate to heavy stock removal, shaping, and blending weld beads before moving to finer finishing stages.
