Abrasive 001

Properties
Tough and resilient with high tear strength and excellent ply adhesion. Rigid enough to provide firm flexible backing. The smooth surface permits uniform coating.


Applications
Designed as the supporting base for abrasive grits for both disc and drum sanders. The fibre backing is used mostly for severe tasks, such as grinding metal with discs revolving at extremely high speeds.
