When traditional aluminum oxide belts arent cutting it, try 3M Cloth Belt 577F with alumina zirconia abrasive grain. It offers increased cutting efficiency compared to aluminum oxide, and has a heavy, water-resistant polyester backing that stands up to high-pressure applications and edge work.

  • Alumina zirconia mineral with grinding aid provides more cutting power than aluminum oxide
  • Heavyweight cloth backing provides durability in high-production operations
  • Runs cool for reliable use on heat-sensitive metals like aluminum and stainless steel
  • Tough and versatile alumina zirconia mineral cuts fast and performs well on many substrates
  • Available in a range of sizes and grades to fit your specific needs

PRODUCT FAQ

  1. What is 3M™ Cloth Belt 577F made of?

    The 3M™ Cloth Belt 577F is made of abrasive material consisting of aluminum oxide.

  2. What makes the "Film-lok" attachment unique to this belt?

    Film-lok is a special type of attachment that provides easy-to-change capabilities through quick release technology. This means you can change the sanding belt quickly and easily without any added tools.

  3. What kind of surfaces can I use this product on?

    The 3M™ Cloth Belt 577F works well on steel, stainless steel, nickel alloys, aluminum, titanium and other materials.

  4. How long does each belt last under average use conditions?

    The lifespan varies depending on usage factors such as grit level used or cutting requirements needed for specific grinding applications. However, we estimate that each single flex cloth belt will last longer than standard belts when exposed to heavy wear areas because it's designed with additional flexibility in mind.

Runs Cool on Heat-Sensitive Metals

3M™ Cloth Belt 577F is a versatile abrasive belt that is ideal for dimensioning parts, deburring, blending, and finishing castings and forgings made of aluminum, mild steel, and stainless steel or other exotic metal alloys. This belt is designed to reduce running temperatures and protect heat-sensitive alloys such as stainless steel, nickel alloys, and cobalt alloys. The grinding aid incorporated in the belt helps to reduce heat buildup, while the abrasive is firmly bonded to the backing with resin to maintain durability under high heat and pressure. The alumina zirconia abrasive fractures frequently to continually produce sharp points and deliver a faster cut-rate than aluminum oxide. This synthetic mineral was developed for heavy stock removal and high-pressure grinding.

Sized to Suit Your Needs

Abrasive belts come in many different widths and lengths and are used on a variety of different belt sanding tools for many different metalworking applications. 3M offers a broad selection of belts to fit most any industrial belt sander. Wider belts are used with wide belt sanders and feed-through style flat finishers to smooth rough-cut edges of metal sheets or add a grain pattern to stainless steel sheets. Medium-width belts are generally used on a backstand for weld removal or for imparting a finish. Narrow belts can be used on file tools to access right angle corners for finishing.
