Product Details
The 3M™ Scotch-Brite™ surface conditioning belt measures 4" x 118" and features a VFN grit aluminum oxide abrasive. These surface conditioning belts effectively remove coarse grindlines, mill marks, and small burrs left by cutting tools or conventional abrasives. Available in various widths and lengths, they are compatible with industrial wide, medium, and narrow belt sanders for applications on wood and metal. Wide belts are suited for sanding and finishing large wood panels, medium-width belts fit edge or portable belt sanders for wood pieces like cabinet doors, and narrow belts are used with file tools in metalworking for small areas or inside corners. The belts are manufactured with a choice of silicon carbide or aluminum oxide abrasive minerals; silicon carbide is a synthetic, sharp mineral ideal for low-pressure applications such as paint prep and finishing, producing a finer finish but breaking down faster than aluminum oxide, which offers a high cut-rate and long life due to its hard, blocky nature. Belt sanders using these belts perform rapid grinding, sanding, and finishing on various surfaces, resisting clogging by opening small grooves as the belt moves around drive wheels. Typical applications include blending, blending corners, cleaning, contour finishing, deburring, fine finishing, flat finishing, grain setting, stainless steel finishing, and achieving a straightline brushed finish, primarily in the metalworking industry. Warranty terms apply as specified by 3M.
