3M™ Trizact™ Cloth Belt 953FA, A160 XF-weight, 2 in x 72 in, Film-lok, No Flex

Consistently achieve accurate part geometry – a characteristic traditionally associated with bonded wheels – with the ease of use, speed and consistency of 3M abrasive belts with the 3M™ Trizact™ Cloth Belt 953FA.

Available in grades from A300 for stock removal to A6 for final finishing and polishing, this belt is versatile. Grades A10 and A6 employ an engineered aluminum oxide mineral and A300 is available on a stiffer YF-weight backing. This belt is available in converted forms up to 25 inches wide.

3M designed an abrasive mineral to deliver Trizact™ consistency with the cutting action of ceramic abrasive grain. This new shape, packed with durable ceramic grain, introduces a full line of consistent Trizact belt products for stock removal through final finishing in wet applications on stainless, mild and hardened steel.

The ceramic grain is a chemically engineered ceramic aluminum oxide mineral that has a unique "stay sharp" crystalline structure. This grain as it wears continually reveals fresh cutting edges. This ensures a sustained cut and longer product life. This durable, cost-effective abrasive solution delivers real productivity benefits across an operation without the premature dulling associated with traditional abrasives.

Fast cutting action allows high throughput and/or fewer belts on multiple-head machines, which means you operate at significantly lower total cost.

Less technique-dependent tools help to deliver a more consistent result. Bonded wheels generally depend upon the dexterity, hours of experience and machine knowledge of the operator to achieve consistently exceptional results. 3M abrasive belts perform more reliably independently of operator variables and you can run them without investing in new machines or shifts.

Accomplish typical work roll refinishing with a sequence of 3M™ Trizact™ Belts. The first step uses 3M™ Trizact™ Cloth 953FA A300 belt to remove 0.005 to 0.015 inches of material from the roll diameter.

Refine the finish quickly by replacing the roughing belt with a sequence of finer grade 953FA belts, depending on finish requirements. Mirror finishes (<1 Μ in. Ra) have been achieved.

• Use in wet centerless or flat grinding and finishing operations
• Consistent, predictable results for accurate part geometry and finish
• Fast cutting grain allows higher throughput, fewer belts
• Less dependent on operator skill to achieve close tolerances and finish specs
• Alternative to bonded wheels
• No need to invest in new machines or shifts with belts rather than bonded wheels
