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 CF Cloth Belt 347FC features a unique formulation and “bricks and channels” abrasive design well suited for hard chrome grinding and finishing. The 347FC belt delivers consistent grinding performance without loading and dulling and the flexible X-weight cloth backing withstands high pressure grinding on hard metals.

3M Cubitron II Cloth Belt 984F offers revolutionary performance with 3M Precision-Shaped Grain on a YF-weight polyester cloth backing. This high-performing belt contains a grinding aid, making it ideal for medium to high pressure applications on stainless steel and other exotic alloys, along with carbon steel, cobalt chrome, and nickel alloys.

3M Cubitron II Stikit Paper Roll 732U features 3M Precision Shaped Ceramic Grain, a revolutionary advancement in abrasive technology. The triangular shaped ceramic mineral is designed to slice through the substrate, rather than gouging or “plowing” like conventional abrasives, resulting in a roll that cuts fast and offers long life.

3M Plastic Keyed Cores are used in a reel to reel system in which new abrasive is spooled onto a roll and passed through some sort of machine and wound up on a takeup reel.

Scotch-Brite EXL Deburring Wheel features a hard, dense consistency that quickly deburrs, finishes, and polishes all types of metals, composites, glass and leaves a smooth, clean surface. Its conformable characteristic makes the wheel ideal for deburring stamped or laser cut parts, or for finishing after belt sanding.

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 Glass Seaming Cloth Belt 461F is a flexible abrasive belt specifically designed for grinding, finishing and polishing on glass and mirrors. Constructed on a water resistant, polyester cloth backing and resin bonded with a sharp silicon carbide mineral, this belt is a reliable abrasive for even the most delicate jobs.

The Scotch-Brite EXL PRO Deburring Wheel excels at deburring and is an ideal fit for off-hand operations. It provides 30-50% longer life than the original EXL wheel, without sacrificing a smooth feel and conformability. Designed for optimal operator comfort, the EXL PRO wheel requires less pressure for a faster cut, making this the wheel of choice for premium performance.

The Standard Abrasives Surface Conditioning FE Belt saves time preparing workpieces for final finishes and coatings by performing one-step prep work. A reliable choice for edgework, some of its best uses include deburring and blending. FE material is an outstanding performer for flats and edgework when high contact pressure and stock removal are required.

3M Cubitron II Cloth Belt 984F offers revolutionary performance with 3M Precision-Shaped Grain on a YF-weight polyester cloth backing. This high-performing belt contains a grinding aid, making it ideal for medium to high pressure applications on stainless steel and other exotic alloys, along with carbon steel, cobalt chrome, and nickel alloys.

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.
