Garnet, emery and mineral abrasives include mined grains such as pumice, carborundum, natural diamond, tripoli, rouge, staurolite, novaculite, silica and other silicate minerals.

Grinding Segments (51 suppliers)

Grinding segments are bonded abrasive structures that can be assembled on a special form to create a large wheel for flat surface grinding.

Grinding Wheels (500 suppliers)

Grinding wheels are used for metal removal, dimensioning, and finishing. They consist of an integral shank, pin, shaft, or mandrel that drives a mounted wheel or blades.

Hones and Honing Tools (137 suppliers)

Hones and honing tools are abrasive products used to refine the finish of internal bores and external surfaces.

Laps and Lapping Tools (55 suppliers)

Laps and lapping tools are used for precision surface finishing, often in conjunction with loose abrasive compounds.

Mass Finishing Media (98 suppliers)

Mass finishing media is used to debur, burnish, color, de-scale, polish or clean during finishing processes.

Metal Media and Abrasives (109 suppliers)

Metal media and abrasives include metal shot or balls, cut wire, crushed metal grit, and shaped media for applications such as blasting, ball burnishing, peening, mass finishing (vibratory or tumbling), and deburring. Products are also used in bonded wheels and coated abrasives.

Milling and Grinding Media (72 suppliers)

Milling and grinding media are designed for ball milling and the grinding down of bulk, powder or granular materials into finer powder forms or disperse pigments in a resin or coating.

Mounted Points (47 suppliers)

Mounted points are very small bonded abrasives or superabrasive wheels with a ball, point, cone, cylinder, or bullet shape. They are mounted on a pin or mandrel for portable die grinder and deburring applications.

Nonwoven Abrasives (140 suppliers)

Nonwoven abrasives consist of abrasive grains adhered with resin to the internal fiber surfaces of a nonwoven textile backing.

Peening Shot (71 suppliers)

Peening shot and beads are small metal balls or glass beads that are used to impact compressive stresses into part surfaces and to deburr sharp edges without removing material.

Plastic Media and Abrasives (88 suppliers)

Plastic media and abrasives are used in blasting, tumbling, and other finishing processes. Plastic blast media allows removal of paints or organic coating without abrading the underlying metal substrate.
