Coated Abrasives

A coated abrasive is produced by bonding abrasive grains to a flexible substrate using adhesives. Commonly used substrates include paper, cloth, vulcanized fiber, and plastic films.Learn more

Guide for Specialties Specifications

Type

Spiral Bands:Spiral bands are best for blending and polishing contours when smooth running is a primary concern. Used for finishing hard-to-reach areas, removing parting lines, imperfections, and burrs on all surfaces. Expanding rubber drums are designed for use with spiral bands. These drums are fabricated from rubber for controlled expansion keeping the spiral band from slipping during use

Cartridge Rolls:Cartridge rolls are effective for flash removal, polishing or removing machine tool marks, and edge breaking. A valuable abrasive tool for reaching into corners, cartridge rolls can reach where larger diameter tools cannot work. It can be straight, tapered or other spiral types.

Square/Cross Pad:Square pads are ideal for quick blending of channels, fillets, corners, or spotting flat surfaces. Cross pads provide greater flexibility, making them ideal for close-tolerance polishing of small radii and channels, deburring, and finishing of bell-mouth configurations, such as deburring, chamfering, and polishing most radii, holes, recesses, and cylinder walls. Both feature standard quick-change eyelet for easy mounting to quick-change mandrel.

Other:Other coated abrasives specialty types.

Abrasive Grain

Aluminum Oxide:It is the most common industrial mineral in use today. Fused aluminum oxide is produced synthetically by melting bauxite and additive in an arc furnace to form a fused aluminum oxide ingots, which are later crushed and sized. The various types of fused aluminum oxides are distinguished by the levels of chemical impurities remained in the fused mineral. Fused aluminum oxide is available in several variations depending on composition and processing.

Boron Carbide:Boron Carbide (B4C) is a grey-black colored super hard abrasive with metallic luster. It is one of the hardest man-made materials available in commercial quantities and has a finite melting point which is low enough to make it easier for fabrication into shapes.

White Aluminum Oxide:White fused alumina is a kind of synthetic mineral with a high purity. It is the most friable grain in the fused alumina family.

Silicon Carbide:Silicon carbide (SiC) is a synthetic abrasive that was first developed in the late 1800s. It is harder than aluminum oxide, but more friable than grains of fused aluminum oxide. Typically, silicon carbide is used with nonferrous materials such as brass, aluminum, or titanium. The high solubility of carbon and silicon in iron would cause silicon carbide to react with an iron base alloy and result in poor grinding performance. Levels and types of impurities distinguish the green and black forms of silicon carbide. SiC's sharp and easily fractured abrasive grains are used for abrading other non-metals such as the stone, glass, wood, and leather. Like diamond, silicon carbide is susceptible to oxidation at higher temperatures.

Zirconia Alumina:It is a high performance abrasive which possesses the unique attribute of great toughness and the highest durability. The material is also able to withstand very high temperatures without the loss of utility. It possesses a good resistance to corrosion.

Ceramic Aluminum Oxide:Ceramic Aluminum Oxide is a self-sharpening grit that outperforms aluminum oxide in terms of hardness, toughness and life when used under identical conditions. It’s a new type of abrasive that was first invented and applied in 1983 by US company 3M, since then a variety of ceramic aluminum oxides have been developed.

Natural Abrasives:Compared to synthetic abrasives, it refers to abrasives’ raw materials obtained directly from the nature.

Combination:It refers to mix several kinds of abrasive grains together.

Specialty:Other specialty, proprietary or patented abrasive grain, grit or abrasive material.
