Effect of Grit Size on surface finish
The chosen grit size affects the performance of the
wheel, it determining the stock removal rate and surface
finish that can be achieved. Coarser grit size enables
higher material removal rate and rougher surface
finishing, while a fine grit size is used for attaining a
smoother surface finishing.
If you require to perform lapping and polishing, please
indicate them to us, we will quote you according to your
specification. Alternatively, you may use the above Ra
Micron
(µm)
as a finishing guide to determine the type of
grit size required for your application.
