3M 7100236513 | 984F x 80+ Grit x 120.000" OAL Precision Shaped Ceramic Cloth Belt

Description

The 3M 7100236513 Cubitron 984F II ceramic belt is a single-flex, narrow-format abrasive design for precise edge work and continuous production use. With an overall length of 120.0" and a width of 0.625", it provides extended reach and control for fixtures, handheld grinders, and robotic finishing stations. When compared to traditional 80 grit sanding disc products, precision-shaped ceramic grains provide higher material removal rates while maintaining cooler cutting temperatures. A YF-weight cloth backing provides dimensional stability and toughness, preventing stretch and tearing under repeated loads. Closed-coat construction concentrates abrasive coverage, reducing load during weld blending, surface preparation, and deburring tasks. The Film-Lok splice is a low-profile, dependable seam that improves tracking and minimizes splice-related downtime in long runs. This 3M cubitron 984F ii ceramic belt is ideal for edge dressing, weld removal, finish blending, and preliminary grinding of stainless and carbon steels. Its 80+ grit specification and ceramic geometry result in consistent finishes and a longer usable life than many 3M 80 grit sanding discs. The narrow width allows for access to confined seams and contours while still providing even material removal across the contact area. When repeatable surface quality, reduced heat transfer, and improved shop uptime are critical, specify 3M 7100236513.

Product Features and Benefits

Precision-Shaped Ceramic Grains

The 3M 7100236513 self-renewing ceramic geometry provides fast stock removal and longer life compared with a standard 80 grit sanding disc.

120" OAL × 0.625" Width for Extended Reach

Long belt length and narrow profile access seams and fixtures that larger 80 grit grinding wheels cannot reach.

YF-Weight Cloth Backing for Stability

Durable backing resists stretch and improves tracking during aggressive deburring and surface preparation cycles.

Closed-Coat Design to Reduce Loading

High grain density maintains cutting aggressiveness through polishing and finish blending without glazing, like some 80 grit sanding disc products.

Film-Lok Splice for Seam Reliability

Low-profile Film-Lok splice reduces seam impact and increases uptime in continuous or automated belt systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the dimensions of the 3M 7100236513 belt?

The 3M 7100236513 measures 120.0" (3048.0 mm) overall length and 0.625" (15.875 mm) width with a YF-weight cloth backing.

Which tasks is this 3M Cubitron 984F II ceramic belt best for?

It’s suited to weld removal, edge dressing, finish blending, deburring and surface prep where a narrow, high-performance 80 grit sanding disc alternative is needed.

How does the Film-Lok splice help in production use?

Film-Lok provides a smooth, durable seam that improves tracking and reduces downtime from splice failures during long cycles.

Can the 3M 7100236513 replace a 3M 80 grit sanding disc in fixture work?

Yes, its ceramic grains and narrow profile allow it to match or exceed cutting rates while offering cooler grinding and longer life than many 80 grit grinding wheels.

What is 80 grit sandpaper used for?

The 80-grit sandpaper is typically used for medium-to-heavy material removal, shaping, weld blending and preparing surfaces applications where the 3M 7100236513 Cubitron 80+ grit belt performs well.
