Zirconia abrasives are commonly used in general steel fabrication shops where they have become the abrasive belt and disc of choice for the grinding and finishing of steel they are also commonly used in stainless steel applications however some of the new ceramic abrasive products supplied by afs are revolutionising metal grinding applications.
Ceramic resin vs zirconium grinding disk.
Although it is stronger than aluminum oxide zirconia may have difficulties grinding mill scale.
Ceramic belts do last longer but they are also slightly more expensive than zirconia belts.
For grinding and finishing of stainless steel sheet metal tool steel heat treated steel and welds.
7 x 7 8 ceramic resin fiber grinding discs.
They are the newest grain innovation and represent the ultimate in performance providing an aggressive consistent cut under moderate to high pressure.
Like ceramic zirconia alumina has a self sharpening characteristic which gives it a long product life and is great for aggressive heavy grinding of metals such as carbon steel and stainless steel.
Situations in which technical grains like zirconia alumina or ceramic are excessive aluminum oxide is the.
Heat buildup is a common issue with metalwork.
Zirconia alumina zirconia alumina is commonly referred to as zirc or.
A resin fiber disc is intended for aggressive applications but the grain structure determines product longevity.
There are many ceramic and zirconia products that have fillers and top coats designed to reduce heat buildup.
Zirconia has a larger crystalline structure and is a very tough grain with a good product life.
7 x 7 8 zirconia resin fiber grinding discs.
Ceramic resin fiber grinding discs.
Ceramic is usually red or orange in color.
Used primarily on metal applications.
Zirconia flag discs remove material faster than ceramic flag discs.
Bha zirconia resin fiber sanding and grinding discs 4 5 x 7 8 36 grit 25 pack.
Zirconia including yttrium stabilized zirconia ysz is also widely used in machinery industries.
5 x 7 8 ceramic resin fiber grinding discs.
Aluminum oxide vs zirconia flap disc.
Ceramic flap discs operate cooler than zirconia and alumina flap discs reducing heat build up.
As you can see there is aluminum oxide vs zirconia flap disc details are as following.
If you need a grit higher than 120 ceramic is likely the better choice.
Alumina is a very common technical ceramic material.
Predator aggressive steel applications produce substantial heat during grinding resulting in shortened disc life.
Ceramic is available in grits 24 120.
4 1 2 x 7 8 ceramic resin fiber grinding discs.
Silicon carbide resin fiber grinding discs.
Sometimes it is difficult to choose the right quality flap wheels.
