Producing Fine Finishes

Whether for technical requirements or aesthetic purposes, many industrial markets value a final finish on their workpieces. Standard Abrasives™ Metal Finishing Wheel is an excellent tool to help achieve the desired finishes. It is particularly useful for stainless steel fabricators and appliance and food equipment manufacturers, as it can help with production finishing of a variety of parts, such as door hardware, plumbing fixtures, aluminum extrusions, sanitary metal containers, and dairy equipment.

The Benefits of Aluminum Oxide

Standard Abrasives™ Metal Finishing Wheel is engineered by mixing aluminum oxide mineral and nonwoven nylon fibers with resin to create an open web. The mineral is often paired with ferrous metals and composites, as well as fiberglass and plastic. It cuts aggressively without gouging or marring the substrate, maintaining the original part geometry and reducing the need for rework. Medium grade aluminum oxide imparts decorative satin and antique finishes on stainless steel, brass, and aluminum.

Dense and Durable

The nonwoven nylon fibers in the open web break down while finishing, exposing new mineral for a consistent cut. Gaps between the fibers allow swarf to escape, so the web resists clogging with debris, prolonging abrasive service life. The open web on the Metal Finishing Wheel is densely and compactly wound around a fiberglass core. The dense and durable construction helps the abrasive withstand greater contact pressures and speed variations. Additionally, the wheel edge can also be dressed to match part geometry if required. Combining aluminum oxide mineral with a dense convolute wheel construction makes for a tough, durable cutting wheel that requires minimal pressure. Moreover, the wheel's density helps it stay firm and not deflect or yield to the substrate, so it performs well on flat surfaces and edges.

Altogether

Standard Abrasives™ Metal Finishing Wheel is a durable and long-lasting finishing wheel. It has the strength and toughness required to stand up to edges and extrusions but still leaves a soft, fine finish in its wake.
