All rights solutions at your fingertips76in less timePrecision shaped grain is electrostatically oriented to form sharp the precision shaped grain wears, it continuously fractures to form sharp points and edges that results in a faster, cooler cutting ceramic grain is irregular and blocky in of a clean, machining action, the grain tends to plough through the metal.

7 This causes heat to build up in the workpiece - resulting in a slower cut and shorter workdoneLeave conventional abrasives in the past and do more than you thought possible with Cubitron II Precision Shaped Grain has raised the bar for abrasive Performance and productivity thanks to a breakthrough technology that re-writes the rules for speed, consistency and product + grades for revolutionary productsMultiple grading systems have been created as mineral technology evolves, and Cubitron II abrasives are no triangular shapes can t be boxed into the screens used for grading today.

8 Precision Shaped Grain is bigger, better, faster and longer lasting than ANSI-graded abrasives thanks to the clean cut provided by the sharp minerals that cut through can count on 3M to meet or beat your current grinding process current grinding process grain (right image) is electrostatically oriented to form sharp peaks, each acting like individual cutting tools that slice through metal, wear evenly and provide super-long life and consistency at any grinding pressureThenNowCubitron II abrasives are comprised of precisely-shaped, uniformly-sized and vertically-oriented triangles of ceramic aluminium oxide.

9 These self-sharpening triangles are designed to fracture as they wear, continuously forming new, super-sharp points and edges that slice cleanly through the metal like a knife, instead of gouging or plowing. This prevents heat from building up in the workpiece reducing heat-related stress cracks and discolouration. And, because the abrasive itself stays cooler and sharper, it lasts up to four times as long as conventional ceramic grain belts!

10 Core to this technology are the micro- and macro-replicated coatings of precisely positioned structures on the backing: the continual exposure of fresh mineral ensures a consistent, even wear, ideal for achieving a pristine finish on delicate or intricate components. In addition, the abrasive surface lasts several times longer than conventional coated abrasives, leading to a range of cost-saving Ideal product for fine finishing, both high precision and cosmetic/visual finishing Designed to save production time fewer steps needed to achieve the required finish reduced rework fresh cutting surfaces continually exposed, resulting in extended belt life reduced frequency of belt changes Improved quality of finish precise.
