Silicon Carbide abrasive discs are compliant with FEPA standards.

Widely used in metallurgical laboratories and research facilities, FEPA-graded silicon carbide abrasive discs are valued for their precision and consistency. Their tight grit control and uniform abrasive distribution produce repeatable surface finishes and controlled material removal.

Designed for versatility, these abrasive discs are compatible with multiple mounting methods, including double-sided adhesive discs, adhesive sprays, and mechanical pressure systems, making them suitable for a wide range of grinder/polisher equipment. Disc diameters are specified in metric units (mm) to correspond with the standard platen sizes commonly used in laboratory environments.

There are several advantages to using silicon carbide discs, including the hardness of the abrasive and the sharp, angular particles that facilitate the cutting action. They come in various grit sizes and offer flexibility, making them suitable for ferrous, non-ferrous, and metal alloys. Water is used as a coolant during grinding to prevent overheating and remove generated debris. They are available with pressure-sensitive backing or plain backing.

Silicon carbide (SiC) abrasive discs are commonly used to grind and polish specimens in metallurgy. This disc type helps remove any irregularities caused by the cutting process and minimize further deformation. Grinding typically involves progressively finer grits to achieve the desired surface finish.

Zirconia alumina (ZrAl) abrasive discs are commonly used to grind metallurgical metallographic specimens. These discs can effectively remove any irregularities caused by the cutting process and minimize further deformation. One of the key advantages of using Zirconia alumina discs is their durability and longevity. They are usually recommended for grinding steel due to the sharpening ability of abrasive particles. Water is used as a coolant during grinding to prevent overheating and remove debris. Zirconia alumina discs are available with pressure-sensitive backing.

Aluminum oxide ( Al₂O₃) abrasive discs are commonly used to grind and polish specimens in metallurgy. These discs help remove any irregularities caused by the cutting process and minimize further deformation. There are several advantages to using aluminum oxide discs, including the hardness of the abrasive and the sharp, angular particles that facilitate the cutting action. They come in various grit sizes and offer flexibility, making them suitable for soft metals. Water is used as a coolant during grinding to prevent overheating and remove generated debris. They are available with pressure-sensitive backing or plain backing.
