Silicon Carbide
Model : SILICON CARBIDE
Silicon Carbide is a hardness and sharp abrasive. It is extremely fast-cutting, generating a rough surface finish. Silicon Carbide is produced in electrical internal resistance furnaces from high purity silica sand and petroleum coke.
APPLICATIONS
The range of application is used for cleaning extremely hard surface such as tungsten carbide, glass etching or in cases whereby a deep cutting action is required to remove a thick layer of material.
