3M 7100051841 Diamond Lapping Film 6.0 Micron 1inx50ft

Product Description

The 3M 7100051841 is a diamond lapping film roll used for precision surface finishing on extremely hard materials. Precisely graded diamond abrasive particles are coated onto a dimensionally stable polyester film substrate, delivering a consistent, repeatable finish across the full length of the roll. At 6.0 micron grade, this film is suited for intermediate lapping and polishing stages where controlled material removal and uniform surface texture are required. HVAC, fiber optic, and precision manufacturing technicians rely on this format for fine finishing of hard substrates including ceramics, carbides, and hardened metals.

This roll format measures 1 inch wide by 50 feet long, making it compatible with automated lapping fixtures, hand lapping tools, and custom jigs used in production and field service environments. The 6.0 micron grade fits within the full 3M 661X series range of 0.10 to 30.0 micron, allowing it to be paired with coarser or finer grades in a progressive finishing sequence. Applications include connector end-face polishing, tool sharpening, and surface preparation on hard industrial components.

Key Features

• 6.0 micron precisely graded diamond abrasive for controlled, repeatable stock removal
• Polyester film backing provides dimensional stability and consistent abrasive orientation
• Roll format at 1 inch wide by 50 feet long suits both automated and manual lapping setups
• Effective on extremely hard materials including ceramics, carbides, and hardened metals
• Part of the 661X series spanning 0.10 to 30.0 micron for multi-stage finishing sequences

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 1-inch lapping film fixtures, hand lapping tools, and automated polishing equipment that accept roll-format abrasive film.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should be performed by technicians familiar with precision lapping and polishing procedures. Ensure the workpiece and fixture are clean and free of debris before applying the film to avoid contaminating the abrasive surface. Use appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection when working with abrasive materials. Follow the equipment manufacturer guidelines for feed rate and applied pressure to avoid tearing the film or degrading finish quality.
