PRODUCT FAQ
-
What materials can I use the 3M™ Cubitron™ II Cloth Belt 966F on?
You can use this belt on a wide range of metals, including stainless steel, carbon steel, and nickel alloys. It’s great for grinding and finishing!
-
What size is this particular belt?
This one measures 54 inches by 103 inches – perfect for larger industrial machines.
-
What does “60+ grit” mean for this belt?
The “60+” is the abrasive grade. It means you get aggressive cutting like a conventional 60 grit but with enhanced durability and consistency thanks to Precision-Shaped Grain technology.
-
How many belts come in a case?
Each case has 40 belts—convenient for busy shops!
-
Is the Film-lok backing easy to work with when installing or removing belts?
Absolutely! The Film-lok system makes changing out belts quick and simple—it helps keep your workflow moving smoothly.
The 3M™ Cubitron™ II Cloth Belt 966F is engineered to deliver outstanding performance in moderate pressure applications, thanks to its advanced abrasive technology. This belt features a robust Z & Y-weight polyester backing, which not only provides exceptional strength and durability but also offers water resistance. This makes the belt suitable for both wet and dry sanding operations, as it can be used effectively with liquid-based lubricants. The combination of these features ensures that the 966F cloth belt is an excellent choice for demanding projects that require a tough, long-lasting abrasive solution.
The Science of 3M Precision Shaped GrainAt the heart of the 3M Cubitron II Cloth Belt 966F is the innovative Precision Shaped Grain (PSG) technology, representing a significant leap forward in abrasive science. Developed through a proprietary process, the ceramic mineral grains are engineered to maximize both toughness and hardness. What sets PSG apart is its unique triangular shape, which is meticulously designed by 3M scientists. These grains continuously fracture during use, exposing fresh, razor-sharp points and edges that efficiently slice through materials rather than plowing or gouging like traditional abrasives. This results in a remarkably fast cutting action, while also minimizing heat buildup on the workpiece. By reducing heat, the risk of stress cracks and discoloration is significantly lowered. Additionally, the cooler, sharper cutting action of PSG extends the belt’s lifespan, making it a more durable and cost-effective choice compared to conventional abrasives.
Get the Belt You Need3M offers a comprehensive range of abrasive belts in various widths and lengths, designed to fit a wide array of industrial belt sanding tools and accommodate diverse metalworking applications. Whether you require a wide belt for flat finishing tasks—such as smoothing rough-cut metal sheets, slabs, or imparting a grain pattern to stainless steel—or a medium-width belt for backstand operations like weld removal or casting gate cleanup, 3M has a solution to meet your needs. The versatility and reliability of 3M abrasive belts make them a preferred choice for professionals seeking consistent, high-quality results in metal fabrication and finishing.
