Scotch-Brite Surface Conditioning Scrim Backed Belt, SC-BS, A/O Very Fine, 1/2 in x 24 in, Case of 20

• Conformability allows abrasive to stay in contact with complex-shaped parts in robotic processing
• Nonwoven, surface conditioning belts clean, blend, deburr and finish
• Reduced loading and heat build-up allow extended operating time and consistent surface conditioning results
• Reinforced backing and nonwoven open web material provide superior flexibility for detail work, over contours and edges
• Removes surface imperfections, grind lines, mill, and other marks

Scotch-Brite Surface Conditioning Belt is a durable belt engineered to perform detail work such as blending, blending corners, cleaning, contour finishing, deburring, deburring edges, fine finishing, flat finishing, setting the grain, stainless steel finishing, and attaining straightline-brushed finishes on a variety of metals.

A Versatile Abrasive
Scotch-Brite Surface Conditioning Belt work well to remove coarse grind lines, mill marks, or small burrs left by cutting tools or conventional abrasives. Abrasive belts come in many different widths and lengths and are used on a variety of different belt sanding tools for many different applications on both wood and metal.

Ideal for Robotic Finishing
With a wide range of conformability options and high consistency, long-lasting Scotch-Brite industrial abrasives are a great option for robotic metal finishing. Scotch-Brite Surface Conditioning Belts can generate a spec-required, aesthetic finish when used in both manual and robotic processing.

Choose the Right Belt for You
At 3M we offer a broad selection of belts to fit most any industrial belt sander. Wide belt sanders are used for sanding and finishing large wood panels. Medium-width belts fit onto edge or portable belt sanders for sanding or blending wood pieces such as cabinet doors, and narrow belts are used with file tools in metalworking to access small areas or inside corners.

Hard-Working Minerals: Aluminum Oxide and Silicon Carbide
We manufacture Scotch-Brite Surface Conditioning Belts with a choice of silicon carbide or aluminum oxide abrasive mineral. Silicon carbide is a synthetic mineral that is very sharp and commonly used for low-pressure applications such as paint prep and finishing. Aluminum oxide is a hard, blocky mineral that provides high cut-rate and long life. While silicon carbide breaks down faster than aluminum oxide, it produces a finer finish.

An Alternative for Wheels and Discs
Belt sanders are used for rapid grinding, sanding and finishing on a variety of surfaces. Depending on the material being worked, sanding wheels and discs may clog, quickly making them less efficient, while belt sanders continue to sand without clogging because small grooves in the abrasive belt open as they go around the arc of the drive wheel.

Scotch-Brite Model Benefits

The Scotch-Brite Surface Conditioning Scrim Backed Belt, SC-BS, offers reliable performance for surface finishing tasks. This model features a scrim backing that enhances durability and flexibility, making it ideal for detailed work on complex shapes.

Designed for robotic and manual use, the SC-BS belt maintains consistent contact with parts, ensuring smooth blending and deburring. Its scrim backing supports long-lasting use across various metalworking applications.

Grade And Abrasive Quality

This belt comes in an A/O Very Fine grade, providing a fine finish suitable for removing surface imperfections and grind lines. The aluminum oxide abrasive mineral offers a balance of cut rate and longevity for effective surface conditioning.

Choosing the A/O Very Fine grade ensures a refined finish on metals, ideal for stainless steel and other materials requiring a straightline-brushed appearance. It’s a versatile choice for both blending and fine finishing tasks.

Dimensions And Size Details

The belt measures 1/2 inch by 24 inches, a size that fits many portable and edge belt sanders. This dimension allows access to tight spaces and corners, making it suitable for detailed metal and woodwork.

Its narrow width supports precision sanding and finishing, especially on small parts or inside corners. The 24-inch length provides enough surface area for extended use without frequent belt changes.

Format And Technology Features

The scrim backed belt format combines a nonwoven open web material with reinforced backing, offering superior flexibility. This design helps the abrasive stay in contact with contours and edges during robotic processing.

Nonwoven surface conditioning belts like this one reduce heat build-up and loading, allowing longer operating times. This format is excellent for cleaning, blending, deburring, and finishing a variety of metal surfaces.

Pack Count And Usage

This product comes in a pack of 20 belts per case, providing a convenient supply for industrial or workshop use. The pack size supports ongoing projects without frequent reordering.

Having 20 belts ensures you can maintain consistent finishing quality across multiple jobs. The pack is ideal for users who require reliable abrasive belts for both manual and robotic sanding applications.
