3M 7010360593 Abrasive Belt 60 Grit 18 Inch 3/4 Inch

Product Description

The 3M 7010360593 is a Cubitron II 947A coated abrasive belt engineered for metal grinding and finishing applications. Built with 3M Precision-Shaped Grain technology, the belt slices through metal rather than gouging or plowing, delivering faster material removal with less applied pressure. The grain geometry also reduces grinding friction, keeping the cut cooler and lowering the risk of heat-related damage to the workpiece. An X-weight poly-cotton backing provides the flexibility needed for contour and surface work. At 60 grit, this belt is suited for aggressive stock removal while maintaining consistent cut quality across the belt life.

This belt is optimized for low and medium pressure applications on stainless steel, mild steels, and aluminum. It is well suited for metal fabrication shops, weld blending, deburring, and surface conditioning tasks where heat management and cut rate both matter. Metalworking professionals and fabricators working with ferrous and non-ferrous materials will find this belt appropriate for bench grinders, backstand grinders, and portable belt tools that accept an 18 inch by 3/4 inch belt.

Key Features

• Precision-Shaped Grain slices metal rather than gouging, improving cut rate and grain longevity
• Grinding aid reduces friction for cooler cutting action and reduced heat damage risk
• X-weight poly-cotton backing delivers flexibility for contoured and flat surface work
• Optimized for low and medium pressure grinding on stainless steel, mild steel, and aluminum
• Lasts up to 4 times longer than conventional ceramic abrasive belts

Compatibility

Designed for belt grinders, backstand grinders, and portable belt tools accepting an 18 inch by 3/4 inch abrasive belt. Suitable for use on stainless steel, mild steels, and aluminum in metal fabrication and finishing applications.

Installation Notes

Abrasive belts should be installed by qualified metalworking or maintenance personnel following the tool manufacturer guidelines. Ensure the grinder or belt tool is fully powered down and unplugged before changing belts. Verify belt tracking and tension before resuming operation. Always use appropriate PPE including eye protection and gloves when handling and operating abrasive belts.
