3M 7010516194 | 984F x 36+ Grit x 79.25" OAL Precision Shaped Ceramic Cloth Belt

Description

The 3M 7010516194 is a high-performance 6.0" x 79.25" cubitron 984F II ceramic belt made for demanding metalworking and fabrication tasks. Featuring Precision Shaped Ceramic grains, this belt delivers consistent, aggressive cutting for efficient stock removal across wide surfaces. At 36+ grit, the belt is optimized for heavy deburring, weld blending, and rapid material removal where a 36 grit grinding disc would traditionally be used. The YF-weight polyester cloth backing provides robust tensile strength and dimensional stability during extended runs on platen and drum grinders. Closed-coat construction maximizes abrasive coverage, while the Film-Lok splice ensures a dependable, low-profile joint for continuous operation. Single-flex design allows smooth tracking and compatibility with a broad range of belt machines and automated finishing systems. An anti-load grinding aid reduces clogging and heat, improving cut performance on stainless steels and exotic alloys during surface preparation. Technicians choose the 3M 984F to reduce changeovers, increase throughput, and achieve uniform results compared with conventional 36 grit sanding disc options. This 3M cubitron 984F II ceramic belt is ideal for shop-floor production or precision finishing applications requiring long belt life and predictable performance. Install the 3M 7010516194 for reliable heavy-cut capability and smoother downstream finishing operations when using 36 grit workflows.

Product Features and Benefits

Precision Shaped Ceramic Grain

Precision-shaped ceramic mineral on the 3M 7010516194 delivers fast, consistent cutting and longer life versus a standard 36 grit grinding disc.

36+ Grit for Heavy Material Removal

The 36+ grit formulation balances aggressive removal and controlled finish, perfect where a 36 grit sanding disc is specified.

Film-Lok Splice for Seam Reliability

The Film-Lok splice provides a strong, low-profile joint that reduces seam failures and downtime in continuous grinding applications.

YF-Weight Polyester Backing

Durable YF-weight cloth backing resists stretching and tearing, ensuring stable tracking and repeatable results on wide workpieces.

Closed-Coat with Anti-Loading Aid

Closed-coat coverage and an anti-load grinding aid minimize loading and heat buildup, improving cut-rate and finish on alloys.
