When you need a powerful abrasive that withstands heavy-duty use, opt for this 3M sanding belt. It's made from precision-shaped ceramic abrasive material, which gives a high cut rate and protects surfaces from gouging. This material also limits heat build-up during operation, letting you cut for longer while reducing the risk of heat fractures and burnishing on your workpiece. The triangular abrasive points fracture into new cutting edges during operation, so you can rely on the belt for consistent sanding performance.

• Standard P60 grit size for efficient cutting performance with an even finish
• Ceramic grain has a low operating temperature for long service life
• Broad 100mm width for use on large surfaces

• Manufacturing
• High-pressure grinding
• Chrome stripping

Commonly called sanding belts, abrasive bels are used with belt sanders for heavy-duty sanding applications. Belt sanders are used for smoothing certain surfaces or removing paint or varnish. They are suited to heavy-duty applications, or applications where a level of uniformity is required that can't be guaranteed by hand sanding techniques using conventional sandpaper. This belt is particularly suited for use on stainless steel and metal allows for metalworking processes such as deburring and blending.

They are commonly used for;

• Dimensioning parts and metal sheets
• Removing material and wields
• Setting grain in stainless steel

Yes – this belt has YF-weight backing, which means it performs reliably in high-pressure applications without the need for additional operator pressure. This reduces user fatigue during difficult grinding tasks on hard materials like cobalt chrome, stainless steel or nickel alloy.

3M is a leading innovator of abrasive technologies, constantly evolving to provide ideal solutions to industrial and commercial applications. With 3M you can be assured of a wide selection of quality products.

3M abrasive sanding belts come in a variety of widths and sizes to fit almost any industrial belt sander. Narrow belts are used with portable belt sanders for grinding or blending. Medium belts are used on backstands to remove wields, material removal and to set the grain in stainless steel while wider belts are used with wide belt sanders to dimension metal sheets and coils.
