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 foam is used to cushion the flexible abrasive, usually with a paper backing. It can have different thicknesses and elasticities.

The indicated grits are the most common for the operations in question, but they do not exhaust all available alternatives. We will be happy to help you find the best solution for your case.

The indicated diameters are the most common in the industry. OTA has many more dimensions available, as it produces formats tailored to the needs of its customers.

Disc holes is an important and often neglected topic. The best solution depends on several factors, namely: the disc diameter, the suction system and the holes in the disc pad. Therefore, there is a huge variety of standard solutions.

The backing of the abrasive in fabric (Vel) is the most common application in Europe and is designed to allow the use of discs or sheets on equipment or plates with a Velcro® type system to allow easy, quick and reusable fastening. The type of fabric is always adjusted to the abrasive in question and comes in a wide range of weights and strengths.
