PTFE ferromagnetic support discs with adhesive-backed abrasive discs or polishing cloths offer significant advantages in industrial and laboratory settings. The PTFE surface ensures easy removal of abrasive discs without adhesive transfer, while the stainless steel base provides structural support. This combination leverages PTFE's chemical resistance, temperature tolerance, and non-stick properties with the durability and magnetic functionality of steel. The discs work with various grinders/polishers and maintain performance under demanding conditions without corrosion or degradation. Their design solves common problems like adhesive residue buildup and material warping during intensive polishing/grinding operations.
Key Points Explained:
-
Adhesive-Free Surface Transition
- The ptfe slide plates surface prevents adhesive transfer when removing used abrasive discs/polishing cloths
- Eliminates residue buildup that can:
- Reduce tool performance over time
- Require manual cleaning between disc changes
- Cause uneven surface contact
-
Composite Material Advantages
- PTFE layer provides:
- Chemical resistance against solvents/coolants
- Thermal stability (-200°C to +260°C operating range)
- Non-stick properties for clean material separation
- Ferromagnetic stainless steel base offers:
- Rigid support during high-pressure operations
- Compatibility with magnetic tool holders
- Vibration dampening
- PTFE layer provides:
-
Operational Versatility
- Works with all major grinder/polisher brands due to:
- Standardized disc sizes
- Magnetic attachment compatibility
- Supports various abrasive media types:
- Silicon carbide papers
- Diamond polishing films
- Napped cloth systems
- Works with all major grinder/polisher brands due to:
-
Long-Term Cost Efficiency
- Reduced consumable waste (no prematurely discarded discs due to adhesive failure)
- Lower maintenance requirements:
- No solvent cleaning between operations
- Minimal surface preparation for new disc application
- Extended equipment lifespan through consistent, vibration-free mounting
-
Specialized Industrial Performance
- Maintains dimensional stability during:
- Wet grinding processes
- High-RPM applications
- Continuous operation cycles
- Ceramic-filled PTFE variants available for enhanced:
- Wear resistance
