Your Needs Matter

Your needs change from project to project. One component will be different from another. Just because you used our NM-1000-.33 media for small hole polishing/sizing doesn’t mean that would also be effective for diesel spray nozzles.

That’s where we come in. We have the capability to tweak or re-engineer any of our media to fit your specific needs. From aerospace or food processing, to automotive and hydraulics. We have the ability to carefully craft what you need.

Abrasive Flow Media For You

You may already know what type of media you need for your project. Feel free to take a look at our most popular selections or consult with our specialists:

  • NM-1000-.33 is for small hole polishing/sizing in holes ranging from .005 to .020. Typical applications are diesel spray nozzles and fuel rails.
  • LV-150-1.5 is one of our most widely used abrasive media. It consists of a 150-grit, low viscosity silicon carbide abrasive, at a ratio of 1.5# to 1# of the total chemistry. Typical applications are aluminum and vinyl extrusion dies for EDM “recast” removal with profile openings of around .020.
  • HV-54-2 is another popular choice. HV-54-2 has a very high viscosity and is stiff enough for large holes and castings, with a 54-grit abrasive of 2 to 1 to improve the finish in castings and large interior dimensions.
  • STM-1200-3 is a gel-like abrasive flow media for diesel spray nozzles, described as a shear thinning media.
  • DIAMOND ABRASIVE FLOW MEDIA is used for polishing of hard-to-machine carbide dies.
