Description
The 3M 7100257866 984F 36+ grit x 98" OAL belt is made for heavy-duty stock removal and long-run finishing operations. This 3M cubitron 984F II ceramic belt features precision-shaped ceramic grains that deliver fast material cut and sustained sharpness. A narrow 2.0" width and robust YF-weight polyester cloth backing provide excellent tracking and tear resistance on manual backstands. Closed-coat construction keeps abrasive exposure high for consistent cutting performance across steel and alloy substrates. The Film-Lok splice offers a reliable joint that reduces downtime and holds up under continuous operation in production environments. Single-flex design allows the belt to conform to standard grinders and inline sanding equipment while maintaining stability. Optimized for grinding, deburring, polishing and surface preparation, especially where a 36 grit sanding disc would be chosen for aggressive work. The 984F formulation resists loading and helps control heat, extending belt life during wet or dry use. This 3M 7100257866 belt is especially effective on tougher metals where quick stock removal and predictable finishes are required. Choose this 3M cubitron 984F II ceramic belt when you need durable, high-cut performance and reliable seam strength for industrial workflows.
