Zr (Zirconium) is the type of abrasive grain suitable for coarse to medium particle size applications on metal, making it an excellent choice for demanding applications, for example on stainless steel. It works best under high pressure, which is necessary for the grain to break, exposing new sharp edges. It is a type of abrasive that has large fracture planes and self-sharpens during the cut.

Stronger and relatively rigid compared to J cloth, X cloth is used in products designed for medium and coarse grains and material removal and finishing applications. It is one of the standard cloths used by all manufacturers.
Stronger and more resistant to breaking and cutting, the Y cloth is a support used in products designed for severe applications, usually in belts. It is usually made of polyester to ensure greater mechanical resistance.
