VITRA represents the latest generation of vitrified-bonded Hermes precision grinding tools. This newest achievement of the Hermes research laboratories is based on an advanced high-performance, low-fired bond and an optimized microstructure.

VITRA grinding wheels are available in in all aluminum-oxide abrasive types, including sintered aluminium-oxide grain and grit sizes up to 200.

Benefits:

  • Optimized pore structure to increase the intake of coolant and improved chip removal.
  • Significantly low temperature stress during grinding and, thus, shorter grinding times with higher material-removal rates.
  • Universal use with fused and sintered aluminum oxide.

Glossary terms in this article

  • aluminum oxide
    Aluminum oxide, also known as corundum, is used in grinding wheels. The chemical formula is Al2O3. Aluminum oxide is the base for ceramics, which are used in cutting tools for high…
  • microstructure
    Structure of a metal as revealed by microscopic examination of the etched surface of a polished specimen.
