3M 7100160695 Trizact 953FA Abrasive Belt 120x9 Inch

Product Description

The 3M 7100160695 is a Trizact 953FA abrasive belt engineered for demanding wet centerless and flat grinding applications. Built on an XF-weight cloth backing, this belt delivers the flexibility and durability required in production grinding environments. The backing is bonded with 3M proprietary ceramic grain, which produces fast, aggressive cutting action while maintaining consistent stock removal rates. At 120 inches long and 9 inches wide, this belt fits standard centerless and surface grinding setups used in metalworking shops. Licensed machinists, precision grinders, and fabrication professionals rely on it for dimensioning and blending operations on ferrous, stainless steel, and nonferrous workpieces.

This belt is designed for wet centerless or flat grinding and finishing operations in production and job-shop environments. It performs on a broad range of workpiece materials including carbon steel, stainless steel, and nonferrous alloys. Its consistent, predictable cutting behavior supports close-tolerance part geometry and finish specifications without heavy reliance on operator skill. It serves as a direct alternative to bonded abrasive wheels in shops looking to reduce changeover time and machine investment.
