Buehler’s CarbiMet & MicroCut Silicon Carbide grinding papers are the premier line of SiC grinding discs offering efficient material removal and minimal surface damage. Our discs come in various grit sizes, micron sizes and diameters.
Diamond Grinding Discs
Diamond Grinding Discs
Diamond grinding discs offer a long-wear surface that provides excellent surface flatness for a wide variety of materials. Fixed diamond particles in Buehler's diamond grinding discs provide consistent removal rates and extended lifetime with only an occasional dressing to maintain the surface. The combination of great edge retention, long lifetime, and consistency makes Buehler’s diamond grinding discs the perfect choice for controlled material removal on automated systems.
Polishing Cloths
Polishing Cloths
Polishing cloths for metallographic sample testing are used along with an abrasive to remove layers of surface deformation and expose the material structure for analysis.
Diamond Suspensions & Paste
Diamond Suspensions & Paste
Buehler's MetaDi diamond suspension polishing and paste products are tightly controlled to prevent any deviations in particle size or concentrations. This ensures reproducible polishing results and a high quality surface finish for every sample processed.
Final Polishing Suspension
Final Polishing Suspension
Final polishing suspensions are designed to remove the final layer of surface deformation and prepare a sample for analysis. Deformities may not be visible to the naked eye, but must be removed for some specimen analysis techniques.
Specialty Grinding & Polishing
Specialty Grinding & Polishing
Some applications can benefit from a specialty product or solution. Unique holders are available for processing circuit boards along with a variety of abrasive lapping discs and powders.
Sample Holders
Sample Holders
Sample holders are designed for use with Buehler's grinder-polishers to facilitate process automation and optimization. Many options for different sample sizes and shapes are available depending on the shapes, sizes, and capacities required.
Platen Systems
Platen Systems
Versatile Magnetic Platen System: The magnetic system offers quick changing of surfaces with a variety of surfaces to choose from. The base of the system is an aluminum platen with a magnet attached. Many diamond grinding discs and polishing cloths (link to each consumables page) are available with a magnetic backing to affix directly to the magnetic platen. Magnetic carrier plates are also available for use with PSA backed products.
