3M 7100164954 Abrasive Belt 40 Grit 132x4 Inch Cloth

Product Description

The 3M 7100164954 is a Cubitron II 981F abrasive sanding belt engineered for grinding, weld removal, finishing, and blending on soft metal substrates. Built on a tough Y-weight polyester cloth backing, it uses 3M Precision-Shaped Grain to deliver fast, consistent cuts across aluminum, bronze, and brass. The belt measures 132 inches long by 4 inches wide and runs at 40 grit. Durable resin bonding resists heat-related deterioration, and the water-resistant construction allows use with liquid coolants to manage grinding temperatures and prevent loading on soft metals.

This belt is suited for metalworking shops, fabrication environments, and maintenance operations where soft metal stock removal and weld blending are routine tasks. It performs well on stationary belt grinders and wide-belt machines used in production finishing. The integrated dry lubricant is particularly useful when working aluminum, which is prone to loading conventional abrasives. Suitable for both high-pressure grinding passes and finer blending work on the same consumable.

Key Features

• 3M Precision-Shaped Grain provides fast stock removal on aluminum, brass, and bronze
• Integrated dry lubricant reduces loading during soft metal grinding
• Y-weight polyester cloth backing withstands aggressive grinding and finishing pressure
• Water-resistant construction compatible with liquid coolants to reduce heat buildup
• Durable resin bond resists heat deterioration for extended abrasive life
• Strong mineral adhesion minimizes shelling at belt edges during edge grinding

Compatibility

Designed for use on soft metal substrates including aluminum, brass, and bronze; suitable for stationary belt grinders and wide-belt finishing machines that accept 132 inch by 4 inch abrasive belts.

Installation Notes

Belt installation and tracking adjustment should be performed by qualified shop personnel with the grinder powered off and locked out per applicable OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Confirm belt tension and tracking before resuming operation. Inspect the belt for tears or delamination before each use, and do not exceed the machine manufacturer's rated surface speed for the abrasive belt size.
