At 132 inches long and 3 inches wide, this belt uses 3M Precision-Shaped Grain technology, which slices through metal rather than gouging it. That grain geometry removes material faster at lower contact pressure and generates less heat than conventional ceramic abrasive belts. The X-weight poly-cotton backing delivers the flexibility needed for contour work and low-to-medium pressure applications. It is well suited for metal fabrication shops, weld blending, and surface conditioning work where heat control and cut rate both matter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis belt is optimized for low and medium pressure grinding and finishing on stainless steel, mild steel, and aluminum. Typical applications include weld seam removal, surface stock removal, and pre-finishing passes on fabricated metal components. The 80-grit designation makes it a productive choice for aggressive material removal before transitioning to finer finishing stages. Shops running high-volume metal fabrication or maintenance work will find the extended belt life and cooler cut reduce changeover frequency and rework risk.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrecision-Shaped Grain slices metal rather than plowing, producing faster stock removal with less applied pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated grinding aid reduces friction and keeps cutting temperatures lower to protect the workpiece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCool cutting action reduces risk of heat discoloration, warping, or metallurgical damage on finished surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eX-weight poly-cotton backing provides flexibility for contoured surfaces and low-to-medium pressure work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtended service life compared to conventional ceramic abrasive belts, reducing belt change frequency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e80-grit rating suited for aggressive stock removal on stainless steel, mild steel, and aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use on standard belt grinders and abrasive belt finishing machines accepting a 132-inch by 3-inch belt.

Verify that the machine's contact wheel and platen are sized for a 3-inch wide belt before mounting. Confirm belt tracking is centered before returning the machine to operation. Always wear appropriate PPE including eye protection and gloves when handling abrasive belts and operating grinding equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cubitron II 947A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 80\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBelt Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 132 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBelt Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbrasive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Precision-Shaped Grain Ceramic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBacking Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: X-Weight Poly-Cotton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Coated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel, Mild Steel, Aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.63 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 00051125947312\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7100023487\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"3M","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51342946435378,"sku":"7100023487","price":677.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310530365.jpg?v=1782011515","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/3m-7100023487-cubitron-ii-947a-abrasive-belt-80-grit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
