3M Vitrified Grinding Wheels 92VA are the vitrified bonded grinding wheels featuring 30% sintered corundum Grains for conventional grinding operations like centreless grinding, gear grinding, cylindrical or surface grinding.

The 3M Cut-Off Wheel 654BK is a general purpose cut-off wheel for carbide tool manufacturing. With a highly concentrated diamond abrasive mineral, solid construction and a steel core, it is commonly used for trimming tool blanks on carbides, high speed steels and hard metals.

3M Cut-Off Wheel 664BL is used to trim carbide cutting tool blanks to length for the cutting tool manufacturing industry.

When traditional aluminum oxide belts aren’t cutting it, try 3M Cloth Belt 577F with alumina zirconia abrasive grain. It offers increased cutting efficiency compared to aluminum oxide, and has a heavy, water-resistant polyester backing that stands up to high-pressure applications and edge work.

The 3M Diamond Polyimide Wheel 665PL is used in the production and sharpening of carbide cutting tools. This general purpose wheel is designed to give you the best balance of form retention and the free-cut rate when used with water based lubricants.

3M Cubitron II Vitrified Grinding Wheels 92VC are the vitrified bonded grinding wheels containing 30% precision shaped grains with geometrically defined cutting edges for conventional precision grinding applications.

The 3M Diamond Resin Bond Wheel 633AH is a general purpose wheel designed for the production and re-sharpening of tungsten carbide tipped saw blades. This wheel offers high material removal rates and good form retention.

3M Cloth Belt 464W is an abrasive sanding belt constructed on a heavy, YF-weight backing that features closed coat construction for aggressive sanding action. The silicon carbide abrasive, Cork Particles and flexible backing make this cloth an ideal product for metal surface sanding and final cosmetic polish, including the required “blue” finish on stainless steel.

When traditional aluminum oxide belts aren’t cutting it, try 3M Cloth Belt 577F with alumina zirconia abrasive grain. It offers increased cutting efficiency compared to aluminum oxide, and has a heavy, water-resistant polyester backing that stands up to high-pressure applications and edge work.

3M Trizact Cloth Belt 363FC utilizes an aluminum oxide mineral bonded to a YF-weight polyester cloth backing. 363FC belts are consistent “go-to first” products for a wide range of applications from heavy deburring and defect removal to intermediate finishing. These belts are available in grades from A300 to A35.

3M Cubitron II Cloth Belt 990FZ offers revolutionary performance with 3M Precision Shaped Grain on a tough polyester cloth backing. This high-performing belt is constructed with an open coat and an additional anti-static treatment to further prevent loading during use on wood. It can also be used in either wet or dry applications.

Flutes are the helical or straight grooves in the body of the tool. This provides a pathway to permit the removal of chips, and to allow coolants to reach the cutting surface.
