3M 7010515487 | 984F x 36+ Grit x 79.000" OAL Precision Shaped Ceramic Cloth Belt

Description

The 3M 7010515487 Cubitron II 984F ceramic belt is a compact, high-performance abrasive belt made for demanding metalworking tasks. At 2.0" x 79.0" (50.8mm x 2006.6mm), this 36+ grit belt delivers aggressive stock removal with controlled finishing characteristics. Precision-shaped ceramic grains provide consistent cutting and a self-sharpening action that extends usable life versus conventional abrasives. Constructed on a YF-weight polyester cloth backing, the belt resists tearing and tracks reliably on small- to medium-format belt machines. Closed-coat abrasive coverage enhances cut rate, making this Cubitron 984F II ceramic belt ideal; a 36 grit sanding disc or 36 grit grinding disc would be used. The single-flex design offers adaptability for curved surfaces and handheld operations while maintaining stability under pressure. A pro Film-Lok splice ensures a durable, low-profile joint for continuous runs and reduces downtime in production workflows. Red color coding helps quick identification on mixed-job floors, improving process efficiency in finishing and deburring lines. Recommended for finishing, deburring, surface preparation, polishing and grinding on carbon and stainless steels, this belt shortens cycle times. Specify 3M 7010515487 when you require a narrow-width Cubitron 984F belt that balances aggressive removal with consistent life and finish.
