What are Non-Woven Abrasives and Why to Use them?
Non-Woven Abrasives also referred to as three-dimensional abrasives, are composed of abrasive grain-infused nylon fibers bonded with synthetic resins. The result produces a pliable, flexible, and long-lasting material. They have been serving a unique and specific function in the abrasives market by developing the final surface finish, transforming the performance and appearance of the workpiece.
Where are Non-Woven Abrasives products used?
- Cleaning
- Buffing-up
- Finishing purposes
- Blending
- Polishing
- Scrubbing
- Defuzzing plywood
- Deburring
- Decorative finish
- Satin finish on the metal
Why use Non-Woven Abrasive products?
Here is a list of the pros of using Non-Woven Abrasives products:
- Exceptional self-healing performance under surface tears
- Rigid Core
- Waterproof
- Consistent, uniform satin finish
- Minimum heat and discoloration of the workpiece
- Resistance against corrosion
- Easy to operate
- Low noise levels
- Less maintenance required
- Better safety than other methods
- No alteration in the shape of the workpiece
Why should you consider using Non-Woven Brushes?
The primary reason to choose the non-woven material is to accomplish the desired result with a uniform satin finish. Non-Woven brushes produce the maximum amount of abrasive grit points in contact with the surface. Their excellent self-healing performance under surface tears and the cross-stitched webbing make them long-lasting.
They come in different sizes and types depending on the purpose of their use. Our range of Non-woven brushes include the following:
