SiC (Silicon Carbide) is the hardest and sharpest of the minerals used in abrasives. Thanks to its hardness and very sharp shape, this abrasive is ideal for multiple applications that do not require great pressure when cutting. Its grains are friable and, when broken, they continually expose new cutting edges that allow rapid removal of the material. It is more aggressive than Alox but wears out more quickly.
The net mesh backing allows the maximum absorption of sanded particles, providing dust-free sanding (and therefore cleaner surfaces), where less time and effort is needed for cleaning, and ensuring a healthier working environment. They can guarantee better productivity and profitability by minimising clogging, potentially offering greater performance and a better surface finish.
