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.

The 3M Diamond Wheel 650HJ is used to generate the flute which is the helical or straight groove in the body of the cutting tools made from tungsten carbide. This hybrid bonded wheel offers high cut rates, good form retention, and increased thermal stability during higher temperature grinding operations.

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.

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.

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

The 3M Diamond Polishing PSA Cloth Disc 658WY is designed for grinding and polishing ceramics, carbide and cast iron. It uses diamond particles affixed to a flexible, J-weight waterproof cloth backing with heat-resistant resin bond and a pressure-sensitive adhesive that allows for easy peel-and-stick tool attachment.

3M Paper Belt 466UZ is a smooth running belt constructed with silicon carbide mineral, bonded to an F-weight paper backing. The semi-closed coat construction efficiently sands and finishes flat surfaces in woodworking applications. F-weight is one of the heaviest, most durable paper backings available and will achieve finer finishes than cloth backed belts in the same grade.

3M Cloth Belt 707E uses a 3M Ceramic Aluminum Oxide Abrasives blend and is designed for light to moderate-pressure stock removal and finishing operations when you need a conformable belt for contoured surfaces. The belt is constructed with a blend of 3M Ceramic Abrasive Grain and premium aluminum oxide to offer more durability and cutting efficiency over non-ceramic abrasives.

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.
