Silicon Carbide Sand Paper
Silicon carbide sand paper is an abrasive material comprised of coated grains adhered to a flexible backing material such as paper or cloth, used widely for woodworking and metalworking applications due to its durability, versatility, and affordable cost. Aluminum oxide sandpaper may work effectively on metal surfaces; however, ceramic alumina or zirconia alumina might prove more suitable when dealing with certain steel alloys. Cost Silicon carbide sandpaper is constructed by coating an abrasive grain coating on flexible paper or cloth backing, creating an economical yet high-grade abrasive material suitable for smoothing surfaces before painting or staining. While more costly than aluminum oxide sandpaper, silicon carbide’s hard and sharp abrasive grains …
