Stainless Steel Finishing System — Weld Leveling to Final Finish in 3 Easy Steps
Step 1 – Leveling the Weld
Using the following products for weld leveling helps prepare stainless steel for #3 and #4 finishes.
Recommended Starting Points
NEW!
3M™ Cubitron™ II Fibre Disc 987C
(Grade 60+; 7" diameter)
• Made with 3M precision-shaped
ceramic grain for ultra-fast cut and exceptional life.
• Includes a grinding aid for cooler
running temperatures.
3M™ Fibre Disc 785C
(Grade 60; 7" diameter)
• Contains 3M™ Ceramic Aluminum
Oxide blend abrasive grain.
• An excellent starting point for
stainless steel and high nickel alloys.
• Includes a grinding aid for cooler running temperatures.
Work Hint: Use the finest grade of abrasive that gets the job done; finer grind lines are easier to remove. Align the grind line scratches with the grain line direction of the original stock. Perpendicular scratches are more difficult to blend; parallel scratches blend easily during finishing. Use a 7" dia. black ribbed faceplate to level the weld quickly and leave fine grind lines.
3M Precision-Shaped Grain
Triangular-shaped grain (top) is electrostatically oriented to form sharp peaks, each acting like individual cutting tools that wear evenly for super long life and consistency at any grinding pressure.

Work Hint: Finish a small area on the corner of the piece. Examine the finish from several angles. The match, while not exact, will be close. With a little practice you can “feather” in and out of the repair area. A few slow passes should restore the finish. Use the longest stroke that is comfortable. Working with the grain, ease off pressure on both ends of the strokes.

3M
Trizact abrasives feature three-dimensional structures uniformly distributed over the entire surface of the belt, ensuring consistent performance and the reduction of belt-to-belt variation. Conventional abrasives, which feature randomly arranged minerals, can wear and finish unevenly.
Trizact abrasives were developed with polishing in mind. Trizact belts start sharp and stay sharp, resulting in more predictable finishes and improved, consistent quality in your parts.

Right Angle Weld Grinding System
3M offers a complete system using coated abrasive and surface conditioning belts for leveling, blending and finishing right angle welds on stainless steel. The advantages of this system are easier access, faster stock removal and less undercutting than other methods such as grinding wheels, cut down wheels, coated abrasive square and cross pads and other products frequently used to finish fittings, manways, frames and bracing.
Step 1: Weld Cut Down
Begin the process by using a 1/4" x 24" 3M™ Belt 977F, grade 50, for cutting down the weld. This belt contains 3M™ Ceramic Grain and a grinding aid for fast cuts and cooler running on stainless steel.
Tech Tip: Keep tool moving to reduce undercuts, work in the center of the weld leaving a slight transition line of material, or witness, on both sides of the weld.
Step 2: Refinement
Use a 3M™ Belt 777F (Options: 947D and 907EA), grade P120, with a scalloped edge to remove the witness lines and refine the finish. It is critical to leave only a slight transition line during step 1 so the finish can be refined without undercutting.
Tech Tip: 777F P120 works better under lower pressure. It is critical to leave only a slight transition line from step 1 as removing too much material in step 2 can lead to undercutting.
Step 3: Final Finishing
For the final finish, select a Scotch-Brite™ Surface Conditioning Belt.
Tech Tip: Grade A Medium is a good starting point.
Optional Step 4: For Other Finishes
To achieve a pharmaceutical finish, choose 3M™ Trizact™ Belt 237AA in a series of grades A100, A45 and A16. Also to obtain a surface finish of less than 32 micro-inch for dairy applications, refine the repair area after step 2 with a 3M Surface Conditioning Belt in grade A Very Fine.
