3M 7010517263 | 984F x 36+ Grit x 21.000" OAL Precision Shaped Ceramic Cloth Belt

Description

The 3M 7010517263 Cubitron 984F II ceramic belt is a compact, high-performance abrasive made for precision metalworking and finishing tasks. Measuring 1.25" x 21" (31.75 mm x 533.4 mm), this short-length belt is ideal for tight-access, bench-top, and portable finishing operations. Precision Shaped Ceramic grains deliver rapid, consistent stock removal while producing controlled finishes comparable to a 36 grit sanding disc. Built on YF-weight polyester cloth with single-flex construction, the belt resists tearing and conforms to small contours for polished edges and grooves. The Fabri-Lok splice provides a robust, low-profile joint that reduces snags and maintains stability at high RPMs in automated or manual setups. Closed-coat formulation concentrates abrasive coverage to reduce glazing and extend life during aggressive grinding, similar to a 36 grit grinding disc. Red color coding and the 984F ceramic chemistry combine to minimize heat buildup and preserve metallurgical integrity on stainless and alloy steels. This 3M cubitron 984F II ceramic belt is perfect for deburring, polishing, surface preparation, finishing and detailed grinding tasks. Its unique small footprint, Fabri-Lok splice and precision ceramic grains make the 3M 7010517263 a specialist tool that reduces downtime and improves throughput. Choose this belt when you need the durability and cutting power of 36 grit 3M cubitron in a compact, high-reliability format.

Product Features and Benefits

Precision-Shaped Ceramic Grains

Precision grains on the 3M 7010517263 maintain cutting sharpness for fast material removal and a consistent finish, outperforming standard 36 grit sanding disc options.

Compact 1.25" x 21" Size

The short 21" OAL and 1.25" width make this belt ideal for detailed slot grinding and confined-area polishing where larger 36 grit grinding disc tools cannot reach.

Fabri-Lok Splice for Dependable Joints

The Fabri-Lok splice ensures a strong, low-profile joint that resists separation and reduces machine stoppages during continuous or high-speed use of the 3M cubitron 984F II ceramic belt.

YF-Weight Polyester Cloth Backing

YF backing supplies high tensile strength and tear resistance, improving belt life during heavy deburring and finishing operations with 36 grit 3M cubitron.

Closed-Coat Aggressive Cutting

Closed-coat 36+ grit layout increases cutting power and lifespan, delivering efficient surface preparation and polishing in demanding metalworking tasks.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the ideal use for the 3M 7010517263 belt?
