Special abrasive by 3M 1379

Trizact™

The abrasive grain consists of a precisely arranged, three-dimensional structure of tiny mineral particles. New abrasive particle layers are exposed continuously. Once the tape is half used, about 85% of the abrasive particles are still available. This produces a smooth, reproducible surface. Trizact™ abrasives are therefore perfectly suited to finishing and, compared to conventional abrasives, have a much longer life and are more economical.

Cubitron™

During the grinding process, small corners of the ceramic sintered grain break off. The resulting micro-breaks in the grain produce sharp edges. This process repeats itself during the entire grinding process. This self-sharpening effect increases its life span considerably. Even with high temperatures and strain generated during the grinding process, the Cubitron™ microstructure retains its hardness and cutting action. It is therefore ideal for grinding stainless steel, titanium and heat-sensitive nickel alloys.

Cubitron™ II

The individual grains of ceramic Cubitron ™ II abrasives are precisely shaped, uniform in size and arranged at right angles in the form of small triangles. Naturally Cubitron™ II has the self- sharpening effect of Cubitron™.

Conventional ceramic grain

Cubitron ™ II-abrasive grain

Different in size and shape as well as unevenly distributed. The result is the abrasive's shorter life span as well as stress fractures and discolouration of the material:

Precisely shaped, uniform grinding grains, evenly distributed and symmetrically aligned. The result is maximum removal rate, a perfect surface finish, a quicker, cooler grind as well as less material distortion:

The higher deburring of Cubitron™ II-abrasives benefit all metal-working operations such as steel construction, container construction, welding companies, foundries and forges using angle grinders and belt sanders for more removal.

Your advantages: • Greater, smoother removal • Up to 40% time saving potential • 2 to 7 times longer life (depending on the application process) • Shorter tooling time due to savings on disk changes • Less pressure means greater comfort for the user • Less dust and heat development Products with Cubitron™-abrasive grain: Fibre grinding disks for steel and stainless steel Ç 8/32 ROLOC™ grinding disks Ç 8/42 Abrasive flap wheels Ç 8/51 Abrasive sleeves for machine burnishing machines Ç 8/65

Typical applications are: • Weld preparation/deburring, cast machining Quicker deburring and a finish, which often needs no further machining and shortens processing time. • Chamfering before welding Quicker grinding processes compared to conventional grinding products and a longer life span. • General removal work Universal on steel, tool steel and non-ferrous metals: All removal work is faster, easier and provides a smoother finish.
