3M 7010515988 | 984F x 60+ Grit x 60.000" OAL Precision Shaped Ceramic Cloth Belt

Description

The 3M 7010515988 is a high-performance 3M cubitron 984F II ceramic belt made for aggressive grinding and dependable finishing across industrial applications. Its 60+ grit precision-shaped ceramic abrasive delivers rapid stock removal with controlled surface refinement, making it an efficient alternative to a standard 60 grit sanding disc. At 60.0" overall length and an extra-wide 25.0" profile, this belt provides expansive coverage for large-format belt sanders and production finishing systems. The precision-shaped ceramic grains self-sharpen during use, extending belt life and maintaining cut performance beyond conventional 3M 60 grit sandpaper or 60 grit grinding wheel media. Built on a strong YF-weight polyester cloth backing, the belt resists tearing, supports high pressure applications and ensures dimensional stability over long operating cycles. Closed-coat construction enhances abrasive density for consistent stock removal and improved surface preparation quality. Single-flex design enables slight conformability while retaining the rigidity necessary for flat grinding, deburring and polishing workflows. The Film-Lok splice offers a low-profile, durable joint that maintains smooth belt tracking and reduces interruptions in automated finishing lines. This 3M 7010515988 belt is ideal for grinding, finishing, polishing and preparing surfaces on stainless steel, carbon steel and engineered alloys. When consistent performance, long belt life and high material removal rates are required, the 3M cubitron 984F II ceramic belt delivers production-level reliability.

Product Features and Benefits

Precision-Shaped Ceramic Grain

The 3M 7010515988 uses precision-shaped ceramic grains to cut faster and last longer than conventional 60 grit sanding disc or 60 grit grinding wheel alternatives.

Extra-Wide 25.0" Coverage

The expansive 25.0" width provides wide swath efficiency for large-scale grinding and finishing tasks using the 3M cubitron 984F II ceramic belt.

YF-Weight Polyester Cloth Backing

The durable YF backing ensures tear resistance and dimensional stability for heavy-duty grinding where 3M 60 grit sandpaper would wear quickly.

Closed-Coat Abrasive Density

The Closed-coat construction maximizes abrasive coverage, offering consistent material removal and uniform finishing across broad surfaces.

Film-Lok Splice Reliability

The Film-Lok splice delivers a smooth, dependable joint that minimizes vibration and maximizes uptime in automated and manual sanding systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

What applications is the 3M 7010515988 best suited for?

The 3M 7010515988 is ideal for heavy grinding, surface preparation, deburring and polishing on stainless steel, carbon steel and other metals.

How does this belt compare to a 60 grit sanding disc?

The 3M cubitron 984F II ceramic belt offers faster cutting, better heat control and longer abrasive life than a typical 60 grit sanding disc.

Can this belt replace a 60 grit grinding wheel for certain tasks?

For wide-area grinding, the 3M cubitron 984F II ceramic belt can outperform many 60 grit grinding wheel operations by providing smoother and more controlled material removal.

Is the 25.0" width suitable for production finishing lines?

Yes, the extra-wide 25.0" width supports high-throughput workflows in large equipment and automated belt sanding systems.

What is 60 grit sandpaper used for?

The 60 grit sandpaper is used for heavy material removal and initial shaping; this belt delivers the same function with greater efficiency and durability.
