Norton Abrasives - St. Gobain Norton BlueFire F826P AVOS Edger Speed-Lok Abrasive Disc, Fiber Backing, Zirconia Alumina, 5" Diameter, Grit 60 (Pack of 10) Item Description AVOS disc (Allows View Of Surface) for a cooler cut than discs without holes, that also allows the operator to see the surface as it is being worked Zirconia alumina and ceramic aluminum oxide combine to produce fast, aggressive cutting Zirconia alumina is self-sharpening and durable, allowing for a faster cut rate than aluminum oxide, ceramic aluminum oxide is a self-sharpening grit that is harder, tougher, and lasts longer than aluminum oxide Closed coat for a higher-quality finish than an open-coat disc This disc is used with a molded rubber or foam backing pad (sold separately) Features Norton?s BlueFire F826 AVOS discs with a blend of zirconia alumina and ceramic aluminum oxide AVOS reduce operating heat up to 30 percent over standard aluminum oxide discs, and provide an interrupted cut which pulls debris away from the sanding zone, and allows the operator to see the surface as it is being worked. Coated abrasives have individual abrasive grains spaced at a predetermined distance from one another. This is a closed-coat disc. A closed coat covers 100 percent of the surface with abrasive grains, for more stiffness and better surface finish than an equivalent open coat, where abrasive grit covers 50 to 70 percent of the surface. The fiber backing is more durable, stiffer, harder, and thicker than other backings, for a more aggressive action that is often intended for heavy material removal applications. This disc features a resin bond. Resin bonds have good moisture resistance, are harder and less flexible than glue bonds, and have good heat resistance and grain retention. Resin bonds are useful for abrasive operations with high operating speeds, impact, and sudden loading, as the resin bond is strong.This disc is suitable for use with a die grinder or orbital sander. Use with molded-rubber back up pads on a grinder. Use a hard pad for aggressive cutting, a medium pad for general-purpose applications, or a soft pad for contours and fine finishing work. Or, with a random orbital sander, use a foam back-up pad to match the application. Foam pads come in different combinations of shape and density for finer or more aggressive work. For example, use a low profile for uniform contact with the work surface or a tapered edge for small contours or inside corners, soft density for 320 grit and finer sanding, and medium density for grits coarser than 320. Zirconia alumina and ceramic aluminum oxide combine to produce fast, aggressive cutting. BlueFire is suitable for working stainless steel, superalloys, steel, cast iron, and in high-pressure applications. Ceramic aluminum oxide is tougher than aluminum oxide, and is self-sharpening. It is formed in a process where alumina gel is dried and then crushed. These engineered crystals fracture and refracture at fine levels, to form a smooth, self-sharpening abrasive material. Ceramic aluminum oxide is most commonly used for medium-to-high material removal on metals. Zirconia alumina is a self-sharpening abrasive that allows for a faster cut rate and longer life than aluminum oxide, due to its ability to fracture and refracture, creating new cutting edges. Zirconia alumina is often used for high stock removal on wood and metals. Abrasives are used for a variety of applications from shaping a part to fine finishing, depending on the grit size. Low grit numbers like 40 are coarse and are used for removing excess material and shaping a part. High grit numbers like 400 are fine and help to create a smooth surface finish. Norton Abrasives manufactures a wide variety of sanding, grinding, and polishing abrasives, and has been located in the United States since 1885. In 1990, Saint-Gobain purchased Norton, keeping its manufacturing facilities and offices in the same location.
