How do i prevent moisture contamination in the abrasive?

Moisture contamination is the number one reason customers call Technical Support. Fortunately, it is usually preventable. There are 4 key ways to keep your abrasive free of moisture:1.Store abrasive properly and always make sure bottles are tightly closed when not in use.2.Keep abrasive in a cool dry location with minimum temperature fluctuations.3.Do not leave abrasive in the blaster’s tank for extended periods of time.4.Keep the air supply dry.

More Questions

What grit do i use for my finishing application?

If you are roughing, choose a 36 to 80 grit. If you are intermediate grinding, use 80 through 180 grit. If you are finishing, use 220 through 240 grit.

What is the grit type?

Grit type is either aluminum oxide (white, pink, ruby red, brown, grey, etc.) silicon carbide (black or green), ceramic (blue and pink) or any combination of these. Grit types are sometimes mixed in combination for achieving certain cutting characteristics.

Can you produce according to the samples?

Yes, we can produce by your samples or technical drawings. We can build the molds and fixtures.

What does the term “flow properties” mean?

The flow behaviour of powders depends on many factors. The following applies in general: Coarser, dry grain types flow easily, but the fine the grains get, the stronger is the impact of morphology and various adhesive forces on

What is the d50 value?

The d50 indicates the mean particle size. d50 means that 50% of particles fall within the specified grain size.

What is mohs hardness?

Mohs hardness (according to Friedrich Mohs, 1773 – 1839) ascribes a relative hardness value to certain known minerals on a scale ranging from 1 (talc) to 10 (diamond). Accordingly, a mineral is considered harder than another if it

What is melting vs. Sintering?

When processing minerals in a furnace, materials can either be melted or sintered. When materials are melted during the production process the minerals go from a solid state, to a liquid state, then is re-solidified during the cooling process

What is your sample policy?

We can supply the sample if we have ready parts in stock, but the customers have to pay the sample cost and the courier cost.

What is fepa and what does it do?

FEPA is the Federation of European Producers of Abrasives. Its mission is to develop and publish standards, documents and comprehensive safety instructions for the abrasive industry. Abrasive grain sizes are produced and sold according to the FEPA standard,

Can you provide free samples?

Yes.FREE SAMPLES 5kg can be provided for your evalution.

What is a silane coating used for?

When functionalising fused alumina, a very thin layer of a silane adsorption group is applied to the fused alumina particles. This organic surface coating has the effect of better embedding and increased scratch resistance in a melamine resin

What are the main components used in the construction of bonded abrasives?

Abrasive grains – usually aluminum oxide or silicon carbide Bonding agent – usually a resin bond Spacing of grains within the bond – determine porosity and strength

Amount of abrasive applied:

This decision is made by knowing the type of material you will be working with. Open Coat – Here, the abrasive granules cover from 50% – 70% of the backing and are set at pre-determined spacing to reduce

How do i prevent moisture contamination in the abrasive?

Moisture contamination is the number one reason customers call Technical Support. Fortunately, it is usually preventable. There are 4 key ways to keep your abrasive free of moisture:1.Store abrasive properly and always make sure bottles are tightly closed

What does the bulk weight indicate and what impacts the bulk weight?

According to the FEPA, the bulk density of an abrasive is the quotient of the mass and the volume a grain type poured out in a particular manner will occupy. The bulk density, also called bulk weight, is

Is brown aluminum oxide a possible substitute for high crystalline silica containing abrasive materials?

Yes. According to NIOSH, Brown Aluminum Oxide could be a viable substitute for consumers looking for safer alternative materials to high crystalline silica content abrasive products.

What is the hardness?

Hardness is rated from A-Z with ‘A’ being the weakest bond and ‘Z’ being the strongest. A weak bond is preferred for grinding harder materials while a stronger bond is desired for softer materials. A typical weak bond

Form and shape of the abrasive:

This decision is made by determining how the abrasive will be used by the individual. Abrasives are sold in forms such as sheets, large/small discs, belts, and large/small rolls. Selecting the right form is determined by whether the

What is the shelf life of fused aluminum oxide?

fused aluminum oxide products do not have a known shelf life. As long as the product is maintained in the original sealed container and stored in a cool, dry, ventilated area, our product will last indefinitely

Do you have stock of abrasive media or refractory materials ?

Yeah, we have many stock .Just let us know the products you’d like or interested, then we can sent you the full information of the stock at once.
