3M 7100189175 | 984F x 80+ Grit x 24.000" OAL Precision Shaped Ceramic Cloth Belt

Description

The 3M 7100189175 cubitron 984F II ceramic belt is designed for precision applications requiring a narrow belt profile. This 80+ grit belt, measuring 24-inch overall length and 1 inch wide, is made for targeted edge work and small-part finishing with narrow-head grinders and tooling. Precision-shaped ceramic grains provide a consistent cut-to-finish balance, requiring fewer sanding steps than traditional abrasives. The YF-weight polyester cloth backing provides dimensional stability and tear resistance under medium/high pressure, ensuring consistent part quality. The Fabri-Lok splice is a low-profile, flexible joint that improves tracking and reduces vibration over repeated cycles. Closed-coat construction reduces loading, extending the usable life of sticky materials while maintaining consistent 3M 80 grit sanding disc performance. The single-flex design provides slight conformability for contoured surfaces while maintaining control over flat faces and edges. The formulation is designed to run cooler, which helps to prevent tempering and discoloration of heat-sensitive alloys during long runs. Use this 3M 7100189175 when you need narrow-belt precision and consistent finishing. The 3M 80+ grit sanding disc is ideal for removing intermediate stock, smoothing surfaces, and preparing parts for subsequent polishing or coatings.

Product Features and Benefits

Narrow 24" x 1" Profile for Precision

Specifically sized for narrow-head grinders and tight fixtures, the 3M 7100189175 enables controlled edge work and fine detail grinding.

Cut-to-Finish Performance

80+ grit precision-shaped ceramic grain reduces the need for multiple passes—delivering smoother finishes while maintaining efficient material removal.

Low-Profile Fabri-Lok Splice

The Fabri-Lok splice improves tracking on small contact wheels and reduces seam-induced marking for repeatable results in batch production.

YF-Weight Cloth Backing Stability

YF backing supports medium/high-pressure operations on stainless and nickel alloys, ensuring dimensional stability and fewer belt failures.

Single-Flex Conformability

The 3M Cubitron 984F II ceramic belt is The single-flex construction allows for enough give for curved surfaces while remaining rigid enough to finish flat parts consistently.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which machines are best suited for the 3M 7100189175 narrow belt?

Its 24" x 1" size fits narrow-head benchtop and inline belt sanders, precision grinders, and fixtures used for small-part finishing.

How does an 80+ grit ceramic belt differ from standard 80 grit sandpaper?

80+ ceramic grain maintains cutting sharpness longer and runs cooler than paper discs, delivering more consistent finishes in production use.

Can the Fabri-Lok splice handle repetitive small-part cycles?

Yes, the low-profile Fabri-Lok splice is optimized for reduced vibration and improved seam life in high-frequency small-part operations.

What does 80 grit mean for surface preparation?

In practice, 80+ grit indicates intermediate aggressiveness suitable for moderate material removal and surface blending before finer polishing.

what is 80 grit sandpaper used for?

Absolutely, 3M 7100189175 performs the industrial tasks 80 grit sandpaper is used for edge break, intermediate stock removal, and finish preparation.
