Getting the most out of your abrasives means taking care of them. Proper cleaning technique is essential.

Zirconia Alumina is a high performance, alloyed abrasive grain formed by depositing zirconia in an alumina matrix. With its continuous generation of new cutting edges and an additional lubricating layer, this product combines very high stock removal with reduced temperature in the grinding zone. Benefits of this abrasive include self-sharpening characteristics, aggressive stock removal with cool cut technology and enhanced surface quality. It is an excellent choice for heavy stock removal applications.

Aluminum Oxide (A/O) is a tough, durable abrasive grain characterized by the long life of its cutting edges and points. It is the most widely used of the man-made minerals. This grain type is well suited for a broad range of ferrous and non-ferrous metals, as well as on soft and hard woods. Aluminum Oxide is a universal, economic abrasive grain that is well suited for high tensile materials. It is ideal for stock removal and polishing.

Ceramic grain products have the reputation of being the toughest, longest lasting metal removal products on the market today. Compared to other conventional grain products that immediately begin to lost aggressiveness once grinding begins, ceramic abrasives maintain their cut rate with minimal additional pressure. This constant cut rate reduces grinding time, results in less operator fatigue and helps to increase productivity with a decrease in overall cost.
