3M™ Cubitron™ Abrasive Grain is a chemically engineered ceramic aluminium oxide mineral with a unique “stay sharp” crystalline structure that continually reveals fresh cutting edges to the surface of the workpiece to give a sustained cut and long product life. This more durable, cost-effective abrasive solution delivers real productivity benefits across an operation without the premature dulling associated with traditional abrasives.
Formulated for strength and long life
Engineered to stay sharp
Designed for thermal stability
Technology Explained
With Cubitron, you get a sol gel mineral that sharpens as it wears.
Initial grinding breaks away small edges of the grain.
As grinding continues, micro fractures form which break off to create fresh sharp edges.
This process repeats throughout the grinding operation for long-term efficiency and increased return on investment
3M Best Performers
3M™ Cubitron™ Coated Abrasive Belt 987FI
New resin system optimises the orientation of the abrasive grain to produce a sharp, aggressive cut an improve productivity (lower cost per part)
Unique supersize coating resists heat build up for cooler running and reduced operator fatigue
li>Premium blended 3M™ Cubitron™ Mineral fibre disc for superior cut rate (reduces trigger time) and life in high pressure applications where value can be measured
Combination of a grinding aid with tough Cubitron Mineral gives a cool cut, minimising the risk of heat discolouration
3M™ Cubitron™ Abrasive Grain works harder than regular minerals, giving a higher cut rate when compared to standard grinding discs and increasing efficiency
Flexible construction in conjunction with the backing plate means less vibration and noise than a conventional grinding disc
Ease of use, lower vibration levels and reduced chatter means a better finish which is more easily blended
