Metal-bond diamond tools

2018-10-25

Metal-bond diamond tools are usually more aggressive and long-lasting. They are used for the grinding of concrete, terrazzo, stone,etc.

Metal-bond diamond tools are available in a range of grits from 6# to 200# with the lower numbers being a more aggressive tool. 

They are also available in several matrixes and designs in order for the polishing worker to receive the intended result. Each diamond tool will leave a scratch pattern on the concrete floor surface. They vary in design, such as single segment, double segment, 3 segment, 5 segment, or 10 segments, which will allow more floor surface get in touch with the abrasive tool to better refine the concrete substrate.

In order to achieve the proper end result, the polishing workers must correctly match the diamond abrasive tool’s matrix, design and grit with the hardness of the concrete substrate. Then, they must achieve maximum refinement of the concrete surface before moving on to the next grit in the polishing process which is very important to achieving consistent results on each project.

It is better to spend 60 percent time of the project to grinding and honing. When the polishing workers have take times to reach maximum refinement in the earlier stages, then the later polishing would be relatively quick and simple.
