Abrasive Industrial Uses

Abrasives are rough materials used to rub or smooth down a weaker material for finishing or molding. They wear down the surface of the working piece to create the desired result in texture or aesthetics. Abrasives can be used as several unique minerals with varying levels of roughness and resistance. Emery boards, pumice and sandpaper are well known examples of abrasive materials.

 Our 3M online superstore supplies an extensive line of 3M abrasives and abrasive products for many different industrial applications. Abrasion can be used for sanding belts, metalwork and woodworking.

In woodworking, sandpaper, steel wool and nylon pads are commonly used for molding and finishing. Sandpaper is the most popular of the three. Steel wool is great for smooth finishes and the nylon pads work well for this function also. 

When metal working requires abrasives, many craftsmen turn to the common practice of deburring. Deburring is the use of an abrasive to shave down freshly cut metal. The technique involves placing the metals inside of a barrel with the abrasive materials and systematically turning the barrel over repeatedly to cause friction between the contained elements until the desired finish is achieved.

You’ll find everything you need from surface conditioning belts, unitized wheels, deburring wheels, flap brushes and polish rolls.
