Scotch-Brite™ Durable Flex Belt

3M's flex belt provides a controlled cut to eliminate gouging, leaving a burr-free finish

Image of 3M's Scotch-Brite™ Durable Flex BeltThe non-woven fiber material of 3M's Scotch-Brite durable flex belt runs cool, resists loading, and holds up to edge work, while aluminum-oxide abrasives provide effective cutting action that produces consistent finishing performance on stainless-steel, aluminum, and carbon-steel over the life of the belt. All of 3M's Scotch-Brite durable flex belts can be distinguished by their purple backing.

This belt uses an aluminum-oxide abrasive. Aluminum-oxide is a popular choice among industrial professionals because of its cut-rate and long life. This mineral is embedded in the non-woven web, which wears away evenly to continually expose fresh minerals. Due to its high cut-rate, hardness, strength, and low heat retention, the aluminum-oxide mineral is widely used in grinding applications in addition to sanding and finishing use. Aluminum-oxide is suitable for a wide variety of substrates in both woodworking and metalworking, including ferrous alloys.

Scotch-Brite durable flex belts work great on a variety of tools and machines, including file belt tools, inline sanders, and back-stands.
