Applications

Abrasives: Used in the manufacture of bonded and coated abrasive products.

Grinding: Particularly for non-ferrous metals and other tough, hard materials.

Blasting: Particularly for very hard surfaces, removal of heavy rust, and fast etching of glass and stone.

Lapping and Polishing: For surface treatment of metals, stone, glass, and ceramics, among others.

Automobile Parts: Used to produce extremely heat-tolerant parts, such as brake pads for high-performance automobiles.

Roadways and Flooring: Used to add slip-resistance to pavement and industrial flooring.
