3M Cubitron II Cloth Belt 784F features 3M Precision-Shaped Grain for longer life and a faster, more consistent cut than conventional ceramic aluminum oxide belts. A precise mix of shaped ceramic and premium aluminum oxide delivers optimal cut in medium-pressure grinding and blending applications. The belt also features a waterproof backing and grinding aid.
- 3M Precision-Shaped Grain blend provides significantly longer life than comparable aluminum oxide belts
- Proprietary mineral provides consistent, faster results on medium pressure applications, helping to improve productivity and throughput
- Reduces changeouts and downtime in robotic and pressure-assisted applications
- Moderately flexible backing provides conformability for grinding and blending both straight and contoured surfaces
- YF-weight polyester backing is used for Grades 36-80, while lighter XF-weight polyester backing is used for Grades 120-180
- Grinding aid cools abrasive processes on heat-sensitive alloys

PRODUCT FAQ
-
Of course! I'd be happy to help with that.
What is the backing material of the 3M™ Cubitron™ II Cloth Belt 784F, and how does it compare to other options?
-
The backing material of the 3M™ Cubitron™ II Cloth Belt 784F is YF-weight polyester. This heavy-duty backing provides excellent durability and strength compared to lighter weight materials.
Can you explain what makes the Film-Lok feature on this cloth belt special?
-
The Film-Lok feature on the 3M™ Cubitron™ II Cloth Belt 784F uses a resin bonding system that resists heat buildup during grinding, resulting in cooler cuts and longer abrasive life.
How many belts come in each case of the 3M™ Cubitron™ II Cloth Belt 784F product?
-
Each case of the 3M™ Cubitron™ II Cloth Belt contains two single-flex belts for your convenience.
What size dimensions are available for this cloth belt, and why might someone choose a larger size like the one listed here (44 in x75 in)?
-
The listed size of 44 inches by 75 inches offers generous coverage for more extensive sanding or finishing tasks. Smaller sizes are also available for different project needs.
Is there any specific machinery or equipment required to use these cloth belts effectively?
-
These cloth belts work well with various sanding machines equipped with compatible sized rollers or drums – ensuring optimal performance and results.
The 3M Cubitron II Cloth Belt 784F is specifically designed for medium pressure industrial applications. It features 3M Precision-Shaped Grain technology, which allows for exceptionally fast cutting and self-sharpening during grinding. This belt is made with a blend of ceramic and aluminum oxide, providing cost-effective performance on medium-pressure applications where a full ceramic belt may not be necessary.
Ideal for Robotic Grinding and DegatingWhen it comes to medium and high-pressure applications like robotic grinding, it is crucial to choose a premium abrasive belt. The 3M Cubitron II Cloth Belt 784F is a fast-cutting and long-lasting option that is perfect for these types of applications. The mineral in the belt continually fractures into sharp edges, ensuring consistent cutting throughout the belt's lifespan. This reduces the need for frequent belt changes and minimizes downtime in robotic cells, allowing for increased productivity.
Run it Wet or DryThe 3M Cubitron II Cloth Belt 784F is designed to be used wet or dry. Its water-resistant polyester backing allows for wet grinding, while also providing protection for heat-sensitive alloys such as stainless steel, titanium, nickel alloys, and cobalt alloys. The belt incorporates a grinding aid to help reduce grinding temperatures, preventing heat-related stress cracks and discoloration. Additionally, the abrasive is firmly bonded to the backing with resin, ensuring durability even under high heat and pressure.
The Science of 3M Precision-Shaped Grain Blend3M Precision-Shaped Grain is a revolutionary abrasive technology developed by 3M. This ceramic mineral is engineered using a proprietary process to enhance its toughness and hardness. The mineral is then shaped into uniform triangular grains that continually fracture into super-sharp points and edges. Unlike conventional abrasives that tend to gouge or "plow," 3M Precision-Shaped Grain slices through the substrate, resulting in a super-fast cut and reduced heat build-up on the workpiece. This helps prevent heat-related stress cracks and discoloration, while also providing longer-lasting performance compared to conventional abrasives.
Engineered for Demanding Industrial EnvironmentsWith over 100 years of experience, 3M is a trusted supplier of abrasives to the metalworking industry. The 3M Cubitron II Cloth Belt 784F is engineered to meet the demands of demanding industrial environments. Whether you need to grind or finish various metals, including heat-sensitive alloys, this belt delivers immediate and uniform results throughout its lifespan. With a wide range of minerals, backings, and bonds, 3M offers a full line of quality coated and bonded abrasives to suit any grinding and finishing application.
