Rubber Products

Rubber products have the advantage of a unique cushioned action for a smooth, free cut. They resist clogging or smearing and are ideal for applications where dimensional tolerances and control are vital.


 

Our rubber bonded grinding wheels offer a high-quality finish with excellent wheel life. They are cooler cutting, can offer a super finish and longer life, and are available in all shapes according to requirements.

We offer the latest developments in diamond impregnated rubber products and control wheels for centreless applications and can work with customers on the development of specialised products as a solution to application needs.

Cratex rubberised finishing products have a reputation for excellent finishing capability on steel, without the risk of surface damage to the material being finished. We are the sole UK agent for this range, offering it in stick, wheel, kit and mounted point form.

Cratex products are made in four standard grit textures or compositions which differ in accordance with the mesh size of the abrasive grain used:

  • C - coarse (green)
  • M - medium (dark brown)
  • F - fine (reddish brown)
  • XF - extra fine (grey-green)

Applications

  • Light deburring and smoothing to relieve stress concentrations and to remove visible and microscopic burrs without impacting surrounding areas.
  • Smoothing and polishing to improve wearing qualities and to reduce the dangers of progressive fracture and fatigue failure.
  • Cleaning and polishing to remove undesirable surface deposits.
  • Polishing and smoothing to improve performance, appearance, cleanliness and to lessen the dangers of surface contamination.
