3M Cloth Belt 340D is an open coat premium grade aluminum oxide cloth belt that provides durability for aggressive stock removal, resists loading, and is suitable for a variety of applications on wood and metal. This belt is recommended for wide belt sanding, edge sanding, or portable belt sanding.

The 3M Microfinishing Film Roll 362L quickly cuts, shapes and polishes, delivering close-tolerance finishes for precision tooling and machining applications. Available in 9-100 micron grades, aluminum oxide is electrostatically oriented and bonded to a polyester film backing. A Type S (smooth) backsize coating provides slip resistance for microfinishing machines.

3M Trizact Cloth Belt 307EA uses proprietary microreplication technology where micron-graded aluminum oxide particles are formed into tiny pyramids of abrasive mineral and then coated on a rayon backing. As these pyramids wear, fresh, sharp mineral is continually exposed to produce a consistent cut and a predictable, fine finish.

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 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.

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.

3M Trizact Cloth 953FA is constructed with a 3M proprietary ceramic grain for fast, aggressive cutting action. An XF-weight cloth backing is durable with additional flexibility. It is ideal for dimensioning and blending in wet centerless or flat grinding applications on ferrous, stainless steel and nonferrous workpieces.

3M Cloth Belt 747D is made with a blend of aluminum oxide and 3M ceramic grain and is designed for superior metal finishing on a variety of metals including nickel and stainless steel.

The 3M Cloth Belt 947D is designed to deliver superior surface finishing on a variety of metals including nickel and stainless steel. Made with a blend of aluminum oxide and ceramic grain, this tough belt cuts quickly and evenly while maintaining a consistently fine finish.

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 Dressing Spindles are the versatile spindles compatible with all types of rotary dressers. They include CNC controlled contour and plunge dressing spindles.

3M Cloth Band 747D is a versatile abrasive that can be used to access inner and outer contours for grinding, sanding, and shaping on all metals, including stainless steel and nickel alloys, as well as wood and fiberglass. It conforms to contours to remove parting lines or seams, imperfections, and burrs.
