Precision Coated Diamond Abrasive Lapping Film
NanoKem precision coated diamond abrasive lapping film incorporates a proprietary new particle, designed to improve the quality of polished surfaces by eliminating scratch-generating agglomerations. By polishing at nominal particle sizes it shortens polishing processes and enables increased cutting from each diamond particle. One-step NanoKem film achieves the end finish specification of as many as two or three conventional diamond film products.
Carbide surface after polishing with P220 grit silicon carbide waterproof paper
Scratch-free finishing in one step - the previous carbide surface after polishing with 1 micron NanoKem film
Key benefits:
- Performance quality: the most achievable fine finish using coated abrasives
- Cost savings: elimination of production process steps
- Safety/environmental improvements: elimination of dirty, messy slurries
