3M Cloth Belt 384F is a general-purpose aluminum oxide cloth-backed belt recommended for metal deburring, general metalworking, and some woodworking applications. It is optimized for use on mild steel and carbon steel, and is also effective on softer metals like aluminum, bronze and brass.

3M Cubitron II Cloth Belt 784F features 3M Precision-Shaped Grain for longer life and a faster, more consistent cut than conventional ceramic aluminum oxide belts. A precise mix of shaped ceramic and premium aluminum oxide delivers optimal cut in medium-pressure grinding and blending applications. The belt also features a waterproof backing and grinding aid.

3M Diamond Resin Wheel 674BN is used in the production and sharpening of carbide cutting tools. This general purpose wheel is designed to give you the best form retention and the fastest cut rate when used with water-based lubricants.

3M Trizact Cloth Belt 217EA uses proprietary microreplication technology in which micron-graded aluminum oxide particles are formed into tiny pyramids of abrasive mineral and then coated on a JE-weight rayon backing. As these pyramids wear, fresh, sharp mineral is continually exposed to produce a consistent cut and a predictable, fine finish.

Scotch-Brite EXL Unitized Wheels feature a soft, conformable consistency that effectively smooths, deburrs and finishes the edges of metal alloys, as well as many plastics and composites. There are a variety of densities and grades starting from a very soft 2 density for applications requiring conformability to a hard, aggressive 8 density for maximum cut and durability.

For grinding workshops looking to achieve outstanding performance while meeting high quality standards, 3M High Performance Vitrified Grinding Wheel 91VX is the solution you are looking for. By combining the unique assets of two technologies — 3M Precision-Shaped Grain and the upgraded 3M High Performance Vitrified Bond V470 — it provides a high stock removal rate capable of grinding parts without thermal damage and extremely precise profile geometry.

3M Trizact Cloth Belt 217EA uses proprietary microreplication technology in which micron-graded aluminum oxide particles are formed into tiny pyramids of abrasive mineral and then coated on a JE-weight rayon backing. As these pyramids wear, fresh, sharp mineral is continually exposed to produce a consistent cut and a predictable, fine finish.

3M Trizact Cloth Belt 237AA uses proprietary microreplication technology by 3M where micron-graded aluminum oxide particles are formed into tiny pyramids of abrasive mineral and then coated on an X weight cloth backing. As these pyramids wear, fresh, sharp mineral is continually exposed to produce a consistent cut and a predictable, fine finish.

Designed with a strong polyester film backing and sharp diamond mineral, the 3M Diamond Microfinishing Film Belt 675L delivers fine finishes on hard metals like thermal spray coating, ceramics, carbides, chilled iron and granite.

Take advantage of increased durability and cutting efficiency with 3M Cloth Belt 777F. This belt features a blend of 3M Ceramic Abrasive Grain and aluminum oxide that outperforms aluminum oxide belts in stock removal and metal finishing applications. The heavyweight cloth backing supports high-pressure applications, performs well on heat-sensitive metals, and can be used dry or with lubricant.

Scotch-Brite Deburr and Finish PRO Unitized Wheel is a new wheel designed to make a variety of metalworking applications easier and more efficient for industrial professionals. Typically, abrasives excel in one area: deburring, finishing or blending. This multi-purpose wheel is unique, because it’s engineered to do all three.

3M Microfinishing Film Roll 373L quickly cuts, shapes and polishes, delivering uniform, close-tolerance finishes on parts used in metalworking applications.
