Industrial Abrasives for High-Precision Applications

Abrasives play a critical role in modern manufacturing, from heavy-duty material removal to ultra-fine surface finishing. Our range of industrial abrasives—including black and green silicon carbide, brown fused alumina, white fused alumina, and other engineered grains—is designed to meet the performance requirements of various industries, including automotive, aerospace, electronics, optics, and metal fabrication.

Whether you're shaping hard metals, finishing optical components, or preparing surfaces for coating, our abrasives deliver consistent performance, long tool life, and precision surface results.

Common Applications of Our Abrasives

1

Grinding and Cutting

Silicon carbide and fused alumina abrasives for precision grinding of metal parts, ceramic components, and composite materials.

2

Surface Preparation

Abrasive blasting media to clean, roughen, or profile surfaces prior to coating, bonding, or welding.

3

Polishing and Lapping

Fine-grit abrasives for high-gloss finishing of glass, semiconductor wafers, and precision optics.

4

Refractory Additives

Abrasives used in refractory bricks and castables for high-temperature resistance in furnaces and kilns.

5

Coated Abrasives

Raw grains used in sandpaper, abrasive belts, and non-woven products for woodworking and metalworking.

6

Bonded Abrasives

Abrasive grains for grinding wheels and cutting discs used in industrial machining and finishing.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the best abrasive for stainless steel grinding?

Black silicon carbide or white fused alumina are ideal for stainless steel depending on your desired finish and material removal rate. Black SiC is more aggressive while white alumina offers a cleaner cut with less discoloration.

Can I order custom grit sizes?

Yes. We offer custom grading services for special requirements including tight particle size distributions, narrow cuts, and special classifications for bonded/coated use.

Do your abrasives meet ISO or FEPA standards?

All of our abrasives comply with ISO 8486, FEPA F/P grading systems, and can be supplied with full certification and traceability upon request.
