3M™ Trizact™ Film Belt 272LA, 1/2 in x 18 in, A10, 50/Pac, 200 ea/Case

3M™ Trizact™ Film Belts are coated with a uniquely structured aluminum oxide mineral on a resilient film backing. Microreplication – a proprietary 3M technology – produces abrasives that start sharp and stay sharp, delivering more consistent cut and finish over their lifetime. The aluminum oxide mineral is contained in pyramid-like microreplicated feaures evenly distributed across a backing in a precise pattern. As the peaks of these structures wear away, fresh cutting mineral is exposed, ensuring a fast, consistent cut rate.

Unlike conventional abrasives, which are constructed from randomly-spaced and irregularly shaped minerals, the uniform configuration of Trizact™ abrasives helps deliver more consistent, predictable finishes, higher, more even rates of cut, cooler grinding and finishing temperatures, and ultimately, fewer processing steps for greater productivity.

The unique construction of Trizact abrasives requires a different grading system. Grade is defined by the average particle size in microns and begins with an "A." Lower is finer. The 3M™ Trizact™ narrow film belt is available in A5, A10 and A35 micron grades and widths up to 26 inches.

• Fresh cutting surfaces on abrasive mineral are continually exposed by wear, resulting in extended belt life, reducing frequency of belt changes
• Fewer processing steps means you save production time
• Microreplicated abrasive delivers precise, repeatable finishes and higher gloss level
• Film backing ensures consistently finer finishes
