Saint-Gobain Abrasives (Worcester, MA) has introduced its Next Generation NORa N889 Micro-Structured Abrasive Belts, offering a precise, flexible design for producing consistent, fine finishes across a range of industries. This is the latest upgrade to Norton’s successful NORaX range of abrasives which also includes ceramic belts, silicon carbide belts for seaming and chamfering glass, and PSA/speed grip discs.
Norton NORaX N889 belts feature an engineered, high-performance micron-grade aluminum oxide grain structured in a fine 3D pyramid pattern which is especially well suited for lower pressure (0-8 PSI) applications where belt flexibility is needed. The engineered abrasive slowly erodes during grinding, exposing new, sharp abrasive grains resulting in 2-5X longer belt life than conventional polishing belts, as well as higher quality finishes, faster cutting rates and an ability to reduce finishing/ polishing steps. Multiple layers of abrasive grain, together with the evenly spaced pyramidal pattern, provide superior, consistent finishes on all types of materials, preventing uncontrolled scratches and producing a more repeatable, uniform finish throughout the entire part run. A flexible J-weight backing easily conforms to complex contours for superior, high-quality finishes.
New NORaX N889 belts are made-to-order in in a wide range of dimensions and are available in a variety of grit sizes including X6, X16, X22, X30, X45, X65, X80 and X100.
