3M 7100232747 | 984F x 36+ Grit x 179.500" OAL Precision Shaped Ceramic Cloth Belt

Description

The 3M 7100232747 Cubitron II 984F II ceramic belt is made for high-volume industrial grinding, deburring and surface preparation on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Measuring 12.0" wide by 179.5" overall length (304.8 mm x 4559.3 mm), this 36+ grit belt delivers aggressive material removal where rapid stock removal is required. Precision Shaped Ceramic grains provide consistent cutting edges that fracture to expose fresh sharp points, extending life versus conventional abrasives. The YF-weight polyester cloth backing yields dimensional stability and tear resistance under medium-to-high pressure operations typical in production shops. Closed-coat construction maximizes abrasive coverage for efficient cutting and predictable surface finish when paired with a 36 grit sanding disc alternative. Single-flex form factor and robust Sine-Lok splice make the 3M cubitron 984F II ceramic belt suitable for continuous belt finishing machines and automated lines. Applications include weld blending, heavy stock removal, edge rounding and rapid deburring where a 36 grit grinding disc would traditionally be used. Red color coding and 984F formulation ensure repeatable results across batches, reducing rework and operator passes in finishing workflows. Users benefit from reduced abrasive consumption, fewer belt changes and improved throughput when specifying the 3M 7100232747 for demanding metalworking tasks. Specify the 3M Cubitron 984F 36+ grit belt when you require durable, high-cut performance and reliable splice integrity in heavy industrial use.

Product Features and Benefits

Precision-Shaped Ceramic Abrasive

Precision-shaped ceramic grains on the 3M 7100232747 deliver fast, consistent cutting power, outperforming conventional 36 grit sanding disc options in life and cut rate.

Large 12.0" Width & 179.5" OAL

The expansive 12" width and 179.5" overall length reduce changeovers and handle wide-surface grinding tasks efficiently with the 3M 984F ceramic belt.

YF-Weight Polyester Cloth Backing

High-strength polyester backing provides tear resistance and stability during heavy deburring, preserving belt shape under prolonged loads.

Closed-Coat for Aggressive Material Removal

Closed-coat construction increases abrasive contact for superior stock removal when used in place of a 36 grit grinding disc on tough alloys.

Sine-Lok Splice for Robust Joints

The Sine-Lok splice on the 3M 7100232747 ensures a durable, low-profile joint that reduces splice failures in continuous automated finishing systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

What materials is the 3M 7100232747 best used on?

The 3M 7100232747 Cubitron II 984F belt is ideal for carbon steel, stainless steel and heat-resistant alloys where aggressive 36+ grit removal is required.

How does the Sine-Lok splice improve performance?

The Sine-Lok splice provides a strong, low-profile joint that reduces snagging and extends the life of the 3M cubitron 984F II ceramic belt in continuous runs.

Can this belt replace a 36 grit grinding disc in heavy stock removal?

Yes, the 3M cubitron 984F II ceramic belt offers higher cut rates and longer life than many 36 grit sanding disc solutions for large-area grinding.

How does the YF-weight polyester backing benefit shop use?

YF-weight polyester backing on the 3M 7100232747 gives dimensional stability and tear resistance, supporting consistent finishes during high-pressure applications.

What is 36 grit sandpaper used for?

The 36-grit sandpaper is used for heavy material removal, rapid stock removal and aggressive deburring, applications ideally matched by the 3M 984F Cubitron II 36+ grit belt.
