PRODUCT FAQ
-
What is 3M™ Cloth Belt 577F used for?
This cloth belt is primarily used in metalworking applications that require consistent cut-rate and a durable, long-lasting abrasive product.
-
Is the cloth belt designed to minimize heat buildup?
Yes! The 3M™ Cloth Belt 577F uses a proprietary ceramic mineral blend to preserve the life of the abrasive while maintaining its sharp cutting capabilities. It also features an open coat construction that helps reduce loading and prevent heat buildup.
-
How many pieces come in each case?
Each case contains 200 individual belts, with each inner box containing 50 belts; this makes it easy to manage inventory without worrying about running out quickly.
-
What sizes does this belt come in?
Our 3M™ Cloth Belt 577F comes in various sizes ranging from narrow (1/8 inch) to wide (37 inches). The specific model you're asking about measures a quarter-inch thick by eighteen inches wide and fits perfectly on most industrial air-powered sanders.
Runs Cool on Heat-Sensitive Metals
3M™ Cloth Belt 577F is a versatile abrasive belt that is ideal for dimensioning parts, deburring, blending, and finishing castings and forgings made of aluminum, mild steel, and stainless steel or other exotic metal alloys. This belt is designed to reduce running temperatures and protect heat-sensitive alloys such as stainless steel, nickel alloys, and cobalt alloys. The grinding aid incorporated in the belt helps to reduce heat buildup during use. The abrasive is firmly bonded to the backing with resin to maintain durability under high heat and pressure. Alumina zirconia fractures frequently to continually produce sharp points and deliver a faster cut-rate than aluminum oxide. A synthetic mineral, it was developed for heavy stock removal and high pressure grinding.
Sized to Suit Your Needs
Abrasive belts come in many different widths and lengths and are used on a variety of different belt sanding tools for many different metalworking applications. 3M offers a broad selection of belts to fit most any industrial belt sander. Wider belts are used with wide belt sanders and feed-through style flat finishers to smooth rough-cut edges of metal sheets, or add a grain pattern to stainless steel sheets. Medium-width belts are generally used on a backstand for weld removal or for imparting a finish. Narrow belts can be used on file tools to access right angle corners for finishing.
