Material

Non-woven abrasive material comprises of a fine abrasive grit bonded with a highly elastic non-woven nylon sponge-like system. In general, aluminium oxide AlO (A002 – A007) and silicon carbide SiC (S004 – S009) are used. Also, we do use special finishing materials with an increased grit content.

Application

EP-Finishing-products are used in dry and wet applications. The circumference speed should not exceed 15 m/sec in dry processing and 25 m/s in wet processing. These speeds should not be exceeded as this will lead to overheating and subsequent melting of the finish material. It is almost impossible to remove this melted nylon from a work piece.

An increased press on pressure of the finish products does not improve the grinding or brush effect, it only leads to an increased danger of heating and exceptional wear.

Hardness

density/hardness

3 soft, 5 medium, 7 hard, 9 very hard

Mounting

The inside diameter of the water resistant Hard Paper (HP) tube can be fitted with reusable aluminium reducing flanges or rubber adaptors or with a firmly bonded wooden core to achieve the required bore. Steel-clench-rings (type K1 and K2) are reduced with the help of centering discs. According to requirements rollers can be dynamically balanced.

Impregnation

EP Finishing products can be impregnated to increase their longevity and performance.

Type MG soft Type S firm

Finishing materials are used on metals, plastics and wood.

Application
