3M 7010536330 | 984F x 36+ Grit x 132.000" OAL Precision Shaped Ceramic Cloth Belt

Description

The 3M 7010536330 is a high‑performance Cubitron II 984F ceramic belt engineered for demanding surface preparation, grinding, deburring and finishing on metals. At 1.25 inches wide and 132 inches long, it’s built for long‑run applications where minimizing‑changeover uptime matters. Precision‑shaped ceramic grains fracture continually to present fresh, sharp cutting points, delivering faster stock removal and longer belt life than many conventional belts. With a 36+ grit formulation, this belt aggressively removes material yet maintains predictable finish control for heavy weld blending, edge rounding, or rapid stock removal. A YF‑weight polyester cloth backing stabilizes the belt under medium‑to‑high pressure, resisting tears and keeping the belt tracking cleanly on grinders. Closed‑coat construction maximizes abrasive coverage to support consistent cutting performance throughout the belt’s usable life. A reliable Film‑Lok splice provides a low‑profile joint, reducing the chance of splice failure and improving continuous operation reliability. Single‑flex design keeps the belt compatible with a wide range of grinders, backstands, and robotic or automated finishing systems. This specific size and spec suits shops that want a heavy‑duty, long‑length belt that cuts hard, lasts longer, and supports high throughput without frequent belt changes. Specify 3M 7010536330 when aggressive 36+ grit performance and belt longevity are top priorities in metalworking workflows.

Product Features and Benefits

Precision‑Shaped Ceramic Abrasive

Continuous fracturing of ceramic grains maintains sharp edges for sustained cutting power, improving productivity over conventional 36 grit sanding disc or belt options.

1.25" width × 132" overall length

The longer length reduces changeovers and supports extended runs, ideal for production environments where downtime costs are high. Specifications confirm 132” OAL and 1.25” width.

YF‑Weight Polyester Cloth Backing

High‑strength cloth backing offers tear resistance and dimensional stability in medium‑to‑high pressure grinding, helping the belt hold shape during heavy stock removal.

Closed‑Coat construction

Maximizes abrasive coverage for predictable, aggressive material removal in hard‑cut tasks, giving operators consistent behavior from start to finish.

Film‑Lok Splice for strong joints

Low‑profile splice improves joint reliability, reducing splice failures in continuous or automated systems and supporting steady production.

Frequently Asked Questions

What materials is the 3M 7010536330 best suited for?

Optimized for stainless steel, carbon steel, and heat‑resistant alloys where aggressive 36+ grit removal is required, such as welding and heavy surface prep.

How does 36+ grit on this belt differ from finer grits?

36+ grit enables rapid stock removal and aggressive deburring, delivering faster shaping and weld blending than finer grits while still maintaining control over finish texture.

Can this belt run in continuous or automated finishing systems?

Yes, the belt’s single‑flex design and durable Film‑Lok splice make it suitable for continuous belt grinders, backstands, and robotic or automated cells.

What advantage does the polyester cloth backing provide

YF‑weight polyester cloth backing adds tensile strength and resistance to tearing, maintaining belt integrity during heavy‑duty grinding and repeated passes.

What is 36 grit sandpaper used for?

36 grit is typically used for heavy material removal, rapid stock removal and aggressive deburring, applications where this Cubitron II 36+ belt excels in finishing prep.
