Which type of cloth is used for diamond polishing?

09 Apr.,2024

 

The Akasel polishing cloths for metals and other materials are developed and produced at our facilities in Denmark and we can therefore guarantee the uniformity and quality of every polishing cloth. It also means that apart from the standard sizes, we can provide any size or diameter of our self-adhesive polishing cloths – up to 1250 mm on request.

The Akasel polishing cloths are available in two different versions; as self-adhesive polishing cloths (Aka-) and to be used on a magnetic support system (Mag-). All Akasel polishing cloths have several advantages.

The self-adhesive Aka-polishing cloths have a water, ethanol and oil resistant polymer barrier layer laminated to the cloth fiber, protecting the cloth texture from wear and assuring that the diamonds are kept in good contact with the sample surface for a fast preparation at a minimum cost. A low tack glue keeps the polishing cloth safely on the disc, yet allows for easy removal of the polishing cloth without leaving any residue on the preparation disc.

The Mag-type polishing cloths for use on magnetic support discs are identical to the cloths described above, but laminated on steel discs. These steel discs are equipped with 3 tabs for easy removal.
