3M 7010360196 Microfinishing Film 468L 100 Micron

Product Description

The 3M 7010360196 is a precision microfinishing film sheet designed for controlled, fine-surface finishing in demanding trade and industrial applications. Built on a durable polyester film backing, this Type E unbacked sheet uses silicon carbide abrasive graded at 100 micron for consistent cut and finish uniformity. At 17.75 inches by 43.5 inches, the sheet is sized for large-surface or cut-down use. Installers and finishing technicians rely on this format when tight tolerances and repeatable surface profiles are required.

This microfinishing film sheet is suited for precision lapping, polishing, and surface conditioning of metal, composite, and similar hard materials. Typical applications include finishing of bearing surfaces, hydraulic components, optical tooling, and tight-tolerance mechanical parts. The film backing resists tearing and deformation under load, making it appropriate for both hand and machine finishing operations in shop or field environments.

Key Features

• Silicon carbide abrasive for consistent, fast-cutting action on hard surfaces
• 100 micron grading delivers controlled material removal with repeatable surface finish
• Polyester film backing resists stretching and tearing during use
• Large sheet format at 17.75 inches by 43.5 inches allows flexible cut-down to job size
• Type E construction supports both wet and dry finishing applications

Compatibility

Designed as a large-format microfinishing film sheet suitable for use in precision surface finishing operations across metalworking, mechanical assembly, and industrial maintenance trades.

Installation Notes

Use of abrasive finishing sheets should follow appropriate personal protective equipment protocols, including eye protection and gloves. Secure the sheet firmly to a backing plate or flat block to maintain consistent contact pressure and avoid uneven material removal. When cutting the sheet to size, use a straight edge and sharp blade to prevent edge fraying. Dispose of used abrasive media per facility waste handling procedures.
