GALAXY CONTERO fine grinding discs for perfect metallographic sample preparation

QPREP CONTERO S and H are universally applicable ultra-fine grinding discs with a specially arranged inflexible grinding surface. The grinding elements consist of a reinforced composite matrix and are mounted on a stainless metal carrier. During the fine grinding process, diamond suspension is regularly fed to the disc, in this way the diamonds partially are implant in the functional surface. This leads to high stock removal rates and creates very low-deformation sample surfaces, which can be polished easily and efficiently afterwards.

CONTERO H

Product Advantages

  • Maintenance-free and ready to use out of the box
  • High surface quality and homogeneous scratch pattern
  • High stock removal rate, flatness and edge retention
  • Long life time
  • Compatible with diamond suspensions from 6 to 15 μm grain size

Recommended applications

  • Ideal for medium-hard to hard materials with a hardness of 300 HV or more
  • Edge examination
  • Characterization of hard coatings
  • Sintered carbides
  • Cermets (ceramic composite with metal matrix)
  • High sample throughput
