Silicon carbide abrasive material is known for being hard and sharp, making it perfect for grinding and polishing metallic samples as well as wood surfaces or paint finishes. From shaping and leveling rough or uneven surfaces to prepping a perfect canvas for painting, water-resistant abrasive elevates craftsmanship to new levels. Available both wet or dry […]

Silicon carbide (carborundum) is a hard material – just below diamond on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness – found in black or dark green crystal form. An extremely hard abrasive material used for grinding nonferrous metals and ceramics. Also suitable for sanding, rock tumbling and sandblasting applications. Abrasive Properties Silicon carbide (SiC), an irreducibly

Aluminum oxide and silicon carbide are among the most frequently utilized abrasives used for sandpaper sheets and belts, offering varied properties to tackle many tasks effectively. Both offer advantages for certain tasks when used properly. Regular (black) and friable silicon carbide can both be used for polishing, deburring, and refinishing of rough surfaces. Silicon carbide

Silicon Carbide (SiC) is an extremely hard chemical compound consisting of silicon and carbon that forms semiconductor devices, and can be formed into hard ceramic materials for applications requiring high durability such as car brakes and bulletproof vests. SiC is widely recognized for its superior thermal conductivity. Here we explore the relationship between thermal conductivity,

Silicon carbide powder can be used for blasting, tumbling and polishing various materials such as metal/gemstone. Both green and black tinted varieties of this material can be purchased. Silicon carbide (SiC) is an inorganic chemical compound composed of silicon and carbon found in nature as the rare mineral moissanite, though mass produced since 1893 for

Black silicon carbide grit is one of the toughest blasting media available and often used in rock tumblers to tumble and polish rocks. Black grit is an effective and cost-efficient abrasive material to use when tumbling rocks in a tumbler. Hard, durable and relatively inexpensive – perfect for the job! Hardness Black silicon carbide (also

Green silicon carbide, a synthetic material with the second highest hardness after diamond, is used in grinding wheels to remove unwanted surface materials. As its abrasive grains cut into metal surfaces they leave tiny chips which wear down and fracture to reveal fresh cutting points – thus providing continuous surface removal. Choosing the Right Grit

Silicon carbide, more commonly referred to as carborundum, is a hard and strong non-oxide ceramic with unique physical properties that is frequently used in abrasives and metallurgical applications. SiC is initially produced using the Acheson process; today it’s mass-produced using an electrical resistance brick furnace by mixing pure silica sand with finely ground coke, yielding

Silicon carbide (SiC) is an inorganic compound composed of silicon and carbon. While SiC occurs naturally as the extremely rare mineral moissanite, mass production has started in 1893 in powder form as an abrasive. Grains of SiC can be combined through sintering to produce hard ceramics that can be used in applications that demand durability,

Silicon carbide (SiC) is an extremely durable material used to manufacture an array of products. One of its key characteristics is its resistance to high temperatures, frequencies and voltages – something other materials cannot. Edward Acheson synthesized this compound artificially for the first time in 1891. Acheson’s discovery led to industrial applications, including abrasives and
