3M 7100126997 Abrasive Belt 60x2 Inch 60 Grit

Product Description

The 3M 7100126997 is a Cubitron II 947A coated abrasive belt engineered for metalworking applications where cut rate and surface life both matter. Built with 3M Precision-Shaped Grain, the belt slices through metal rather than plowing or gouging, which means faster material removal at lower applied pressure. An X-weight poly-cotton backing delivers the flexibility needed for contoured and flat surface work. At 60 inches long and 2 inches wide with a 60-grit cut, this belt is suited to low and medium pressure grinding and finishing tasks on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. A built-in grinding aid reduces friction and keeps cutting temperatures down.

This belt is designed for portable and stationary belt grinders used on stainless steel, mild steels, and aluminum. It fits belt grinder and finishing machine configurations that accept a 60 inch by 2 inch belt. The 60-grit designation places it in the aggressive stock-removal range, making it appropriate for weld blending, deburring, and surface conditioning on fabricated metal parts. Metalworkers, fabricators, and maintenance technicians working in industrial, commercial, and job-shop environments are the primary users. It is sold as an individual belt (each), with a minimum order quantity of 50 units.

Key Features

• Precision-Shaped Grain cuts metal on a shearing action, reducing heat and increasing cut rate versus conventional ceramic abrasives
• Built-in grinding aid minimizes grinding friction for cooler cutting and reduced risk of heat discoloration or metallurgical damage to the workpiece
• X-weight poly-cotton backing provides flexibility for both flat and contoured metal surfaces
• Optimized for low and medium pressure applications, reducing operator fatigue on extended runs
• Rated service life up to 4 times longer than conventional ceramic belts, lowering per-part abrasive cost
• Suitable for stainless steel, mild steels, and aluminum in a single belt specification

Compatibility

Fits belt grinders and abrasive finishing machines configured for a 60 inch by 2 inch belt. Optimized for low and medium pressure grinding and finishing on stainless steel, mild steels, and aluminum.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by metalworking technicians or machine operators following equipment manufacturer belt-change procedures. Disconnect and lock out power to the grinder before removing or installing the belt. Confirm belt tracking and tension per machine specifications before resuming operation. Inspect the belt for tears or edge damage before each use; do not run a damaged belt.
