Highlights
  • XF-weight polyester cloth backing supports rugged use while allowing conformability to irregular profiles
  • Proprietary 3M-engineered abrasive mineral enhances the performance of aluminum oxide abrasive grain and reduces risk of uneven finishes

The 3M™ Trizact™ Cloth Belt 253FA is a tough, reliable belt for flat finishing and centreless applications. Employing microreplicated aluminum oxide mineral resin-bonded on a durable, waterproof backing, this belt is available in many forms and a range of splices. It is ideal for use with metals including stainless steel, carbon steel, aluminum, nickel alloys, cobalt steel, copper, and brass.

The 3M™ Trizact™ Cloth Belt 253FA sands scratches, gouges, dents and stains on a range of metals without wearing easily. It features a tough XF-weight polyester cloth backing with enough flex to respect surface irregularities and the stamina to withstand rugged use. These attributes make it a good match for flat or centreless finishing applications, which require a sturdy abrasive that is still sensitive to surface irregularities. In grades from A100 to A6, this belt is available in a wide variety of forms, widths and lengths for many different metalworking applications, as well as non-standard and make-to-order forms. 3M™ Trizact™ Abrasives are graded uniquely. Grade is defined by the average particle size in microns and is indicated with an “A.” Lower is finer. A proprietary 3M technology, microreplication involves engineering and reproducing precisely sculpted microscopic shapes, with extreme uniformity, across a surface. In the case of abrasive mineral, that surface is a cloth or film backing. As these structures break down during use, new mineral is continually exposed. The uniform configuration and spacing of 3M™ Trizact™ Abrasive minerals reduce the risk of uneven finishes and contributes to consistent and predictable performance from start to finish. From surgical tools to automotive transmission components, 3M™ Trizact™ Abrasives are designed to deliver a consistent finish part after part.
