Key Considerations for Lapping Abrasives or Accessories or Consumables

When selecting lapping abrasives or accessories or consumables, consider the following key factors:

  1. Material Compatibility: Ensure that the abrasives are compatible with the material you are working with to achieve optimal results and prevent damage.

  2. Grit Size: Select the appropriate grit size based on the level of material removal and surface finish required for the application.

  3. Abrasive Type: Choose between diamond, silicon carbide, aluminum oxide, or other abrasive types based on the material being lapped and the desired outcome.
