3M 7100078550 | 984F x 60+ Grit x 42.000" OAL Precision Shaped Ceramic Cloth Belt

Description

The 3M 7100078550 Cubitron II 984F 60+ grit belt is made for demanding metalworking tasks on titanium and stainless steel. Precision-shaped ceramic grains deliver consistent fracturing for high cut rates and longer life compared with conventional abrasives. At 42.0" OAL and 1.0" width, the belt balances stability and access for confined and continuous finishing operations. A YF-weight polyester cloth backing provides tear resistance and dimensional stability under load for extended run times. Closed-coat construction maximizes abrasive coverage to improve material removal and reduce cycle time for grinding and surface preparation. The Film-Lok splice ensures a robust, low-profile joint for reliable performance in centerless and cylindrical grinders. Single-flex design allows this 3M cubitron 984F II ceramic belt to work efficiently on bench motors and manual backstands. Built-in grinding aid reduces heat transfer to the workpiece, preserving finish quality during heavy deburring and polishing. Use the 3M 7100078550 for finishing, grinding, deburring and polishing where a 60 grit grinding wheel or 60 grit sanding disc would traditionally be used. This maroon 984F belt offers predictable stock removal and improved productivity for production shops and precision toolrooms.

Product Features and Benefits

Precision-Shaped Ceramic Abrasive

Precision grains provide rapid stock removal and sustained cutting, a signature performance of the 3M 7100078550 and 984F II ceramic belts.

42.0" Overall Length / 1.0" Width

Form factor suits centerless grinders and bench motors, giving consistent contact for finishing and grinding operations.

YF Polyester Cloth Backing

Durable YF-weight backing resists tearing and maintains belt shape during high-speed deburring and surface preparation.

Film-Lok Splice Technology

Low-profile, reliable splice reduces downtime in automated setups and improves run reliability versus conventional splices.

Optimised for Titanium and Stainless Steel

Closed-coat construction and grinding aid reduce heat and glazing when working exotic alloys with a 60 grit grinding wheel or 60 grit sanding disc.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the 3M 7100078550 best used for?

The 3M 7100078550 excels at grinding, deburring, finishing and surface preparation on titanium and stainless steel in industrial settings.
