Titan Tool Supply Inc. announces the introduction of its line of precision diamond and Borazon microfinishing grinding pins. They are designed to meet an increasing demand for small precision ID grinding in industries such as ceramics, electronics, and tool, mold and die making. A carbide shank provides added strength and precision, according to Titan Tool Supply.
The working ends of the pins are coated with either diamond or Borazon. Three diameters are offered for use in small openings. These include 0.016” dia. with 500/600 grit, 0.020” dia. with 325/400 grit and 0.024” dia. with 325/400 grit.
