- YF-weight polyester backing is used for Grades 36-80, while lighter XF-weight polyester backing is used for Grades 120-180
Outstanding Performance on Medium Pressure Applications
We engineered our 3M Cubitron II Cloth Belt 784F with medium pressure industrial applications in mind, using 3M Precision-Shaped Grain, which cuts exceptionally fast and self-sharpens during grinding. This high-performing belt contains a ceramic and aluminum oxide blend that delivers cost-effective performance on medium-pressure applications, where a full ceramic belt may be underutilized.
Coarse grades 36-80 have a YF-weight backing, while finer grades of 120-180 have a lighter XF-weight backing. Both weights are moderately flexible and conform well to slight contours and flat surfaces.Ideal for Robotic Grinding and Degating
In medium and high-pressure applications like robotic grinding, it's important to choose a premium abrasive belt like the fast-cutting, long-lasting 3M Cubitron II Cloth Belt 784F. The mineral in the belt continually fractures into sharp edges to keep cutting through the life of the belt, reducing changeouts and downtime in robotic cells. This helps maximize the efficiency of the cell, allowing you to produce more parts per belt.Run it Wet or Dry
With its water-resistant polyester backing, 3M Cubitron II Cloth Belt 784F may be run wet or dry. To protect heat sensitive alloys such as stainless steel, titanium, nickel alloys and cobalt alloys from heat-related stress cracks and discoloration, we incorporated a grinding aid to help reduce grinding temperatures. Additionally, the abrasive is firmly bonded to the backing with resin to maintain durability under high heat and pressure.The Science of 3M Precision-Shaped Grain Blend
3M Precision-Shaped Grain is a major advancement in abrasive technology. This ceramic mineral is designed using a proprietary process to enhance toughness and hardness of the grain. 3M scientists then went one step further and engineered the mineral to form uniform triangular shaped grains that continually fracture into super-sharp points and edges that slice through the substrate, rather than gouging or "plowing" like conventional abrasives. It creates a super-fast cut and lessens heat build-up on the workpiece, reducing heat-related stress cracks and discoloration. Moreover, because 3M Precision-Shaped Grain stays cooler and sharper, it lasts longer than conventional abrasives.Engineered for Demanding Industrial Environments

Trust 3M Cubitron II Cloth Belt 784F to produce immediate, uniform results over the life of the product on all metals, including heat-sensitive alloys.Trusted 3M Cubitron II
The 3M Cubitron II Cloth Belt 784F offers reliable performance with 3M Precision-Shaped Grain technology. This belt is designed to deliver a faster, more consistent cut than traditional ceramic aluminum oxide belts, making it a trusted choice for industrial grinding.
Its unique blend of shaped ceramic and premium aluminum oxide ensures optimal cutting in medium-pressure applications. The 2 in x 132 in size fits many standard grinders, providing versatility on the shop floor.
Medium Pressure Performance
Engineered specifically for medium pressure grinding, the 3M Cubitron II Cloth Belt 784F features a YF-weight backing for coarse grades 36-80 and a lighter XF-weight backing for finer grades 120-180. This backing flexibility helps the belt conform to both flat and contoured surfaces.
This design improves productivity by providing consistent, faster results on medium pressure tasks. The 36+ YF-weight backing ensures durability and adaptability for various grinding and blending jobs.
Wet Or Dry Use
The belt’s Film-lok waterproof backing allows it to be used in both wet and dry grinding applications. This versatility protects heat-sensitive alloys like stainless steel and titanium from heat damage during use.
Additionally, the grinding aid incorporated into the belt helps reduce heat buildup, extending belt life and maintaining performance across different working conditions.
Robotic Grinding Efficiency
Designed for robotic and pressure-assisted grinding, the 3M Cubitron II Cloth Belt 784F reduces downtime by lasting longer and cutting faster. Its mineral continually fractures into sharp edges, maintaining cutting power throughout the belt’s life.
This feature helps maximize throughput in automated cells, making it ideal for demanding industrial environments where consistent performance is critical.
Case Pack Convenience
Each case contains 50 belts, providing ample supply for ongoing industrial use. The 2 in x 132 in dimension fits a wide range of equipment, ensuring compatibility and ease of replacement.
With the 36+ YF-weight backing and Film-lok single-flex format, these belts offer a balance of durability and flexibility suited for various metalworking tasks.
