CONCRETE | 8 MIN READ

Our clients continue to push the limits of our diamond tools often discovering new uses and applications along the way. This is especially true for our clients in the industrial and manufacturing sector. Our diamond tools are put to the maximum test on a variety of manufacturing processes and on a multitude of materials.
Our Sword Disc, Full Face Disc and Sec Discs were originally conceived as stone fabrication tools, but have recently gained popularity as alternatives to traditional abrasive wheels. These vacuum brazed discs are being used for:
- Weld cleanup and removal
- Stock removal
- Cutting & bevelling
The next generation of metal working uses vacuum brazed diamond tools because:
- They outlast traditional abrasive wheels by a factor of 50 to 1
- Over time, the wear doesn't change the size or shape of the tool
- Less sparks
- Less debris
- Less odour
- Much more cost effective due to minimal tool charge
In addition to great added value, these vacuum brazed tools can be used on a wide variety of materials:
- Carbon steel (high and low)
- Stainless steel
- Ductile iron
- Hard friction alloys
- Weld removal
- Plastics, FRP, PVC
- Bar and tube steel
- Rail track
Below is a quick review of the tools, their characteristics and uses.
