Abrasives & Finishing Products

Two next-generation CNC deburring holders from Bel Air Finishing were designed to automate, streamline, and elevate edge-finishing operations across manufacturing environments. The new FM-DBR7-1D Series and FM-DBR7-SC Series will upgrade a machine shop with precision-engineered solutions that replace manual deburring with consistent, repeatable, automation-ready performance.

Heule Tool's new SNAP-X deburring line for cross-hole deburring of main bores with multiple cross bores. SNAP-X deburrs intersecting cross bores at different diameters and angles directly through the main bore in one pass. With two cutting blades that work in both directions, it provides forward and backward cutting.

Heule will feature the DL2 – a small, robust, reliable mechanical deburring tool for 1.00mm to 2.1mm bores in a wide range of materials including steel, stainless steel, titanium, aluminum, and composites

The expanded Tiger 2.0 lineup, includes the Tiger Ceramic 2.0 and Tiger INOX 2.0 portfolio of cutting, grinding and combination wheels. Tiger Ceramic 2.0 cutting, grinding and combo wheels offer a superior combination of life and cut rate for maximum productivity.

Norton NORaX N889 belts feature an engineered, high-performance micron-grade aluminum oxide grain structured in a fine 3D pyramid pattern which is especially well suited for lower pressure (0-8 PSI) applications where belt flexibility is needed. The engineered abrasive slowly erodes during grinding, exposing new, sharp abrasive grains resulting in 2-5X longer belt life than conventional polishing belts, as well as higher quality finishes, faster cutting rates and an ability to reduce finishing/ polishing steps.

The UltraTEC ultrasonic A25 creates a formation and dissolution/implosion of bubbles in water that release an intense energy during implosion. This is created by an ultra-high oscillation of 20kHz (20,000 oscillations per second) with an oscillation width of +/-80-120microns, which far exceeds the amplitude of ultrasonic cleaning, cutting and welding technologies.

The improved zirconia alumina and aluminum oxide blending discs also deliver better performance and product life. In addition, the expanded blending disc portfolio provides more connection types, with all of the grain options in the lineup now available in Type S and Type R connections. All the discs are now available with a resin fiber or cloth backing. The resin fiber backing helps reduce the pressure an operator must apply to the disc to maximize the cut rate. It also helps retain the grain on the disc, increasing disc life. The cloth backing offers a more comfortable disc that gives the operator greater control of material removal. The Weiler Abrasives blending disc portfolio also includes a line of aluminum discs that remains unchanged.
