What Is a Surface Conditioning Disc?
A surface conditioning disc is a specialized tool designed for precision polishing tasks.
Available in sizes ranging from a few inches to several feet in diameter, these discs are embedded with fine abrasive grains on their surface. The grains, often made from hard materials like diamond or silicon carbide, facilitate efficient and precise polishing.
When mounted on a polishing machine’s spindle and rotated at high speeds, the disc polishes material surfaces through the fine friction and pressure generated by the abrasive grains’ contact. These discs are versatile, applying to various materials including metals, plastics, glass, and ceramics, to achieve a uniformly smooth finish.
