Black Hawk Abrasives’ 5-inch silicon carbide resin fiber discs are excellent tools for sanding glass, marble and stone surfaces as well as non metallic surfaces like fiberglass, plastic and rubber. Available in several grit grades from coarser grades up to finer ones for polishing purposes, they make ideal additions to any workspace. This razor-sharp grit …
Silicon carbide (SiC) is an innovative industrial material, serving both as ceramic and semiconductor properties. As one of the hardest known substances – competing against materials like diamond and boron carbide – silicon carbide has long been prized as an investment material. SiC grains and powders have many applications in a wide variety of industries, …
Silicon carbide (SiC) is an exceptionally hard synthetically produced compound of silicon and carbon that is used to produce sandpaper, grinding wheels and cutting tools, as well as linings for industrial furnaces, as refractory material or heating elements. SiC can be transformed into a semiconductor by adding various impurities that allow electricity to pass through …
Silicon Carbide (SiC), more commonly referred to as Carborundum, is an extremely hard ceramic material widely used for car brakes and clutches as well as bulletproof vests. Natural moissanite was first identified at Canyon Diablo meteor crater in Arizona in 1893. Synthetic versions are produced commercially as an abrasive. Physical properties Silicon carbide possesses powerful …

Silicon carbide is an impressive material with many useful industrial properties. Its tough, tough surface boasts exceptional toughness and abrasion resistance while offering thermal shock resistance at elevated temperatures. SiC’s conductivity depends on its density and composition, with doping options that include nitrogen or phosphorus for an n-type application or beryllium, boron, aluminum or gallium …
Silicon carbide (SiC) discs are ideal for sanding glass edges and natural stone surfaces, featuring heavy Y weight water proof cloth backings with non-loading stearate particles. Hook and loop-backed discs feature a hole pattern to perfectly complement the pad on your power sander, with an anti-clog non-loading stearate to help avoid clogging issues as well …
Silicon carbide, also referred to as corundum or carborundum, is a hard chemical compound made up of silicon and carbon that forms gems such as moissanite. Metalloid has a layered crystal structure that comes in various forms or polytypes. It is insoluble in water and alcohol while being resistant to most acids and alkalis. Abrasive …
Silicon carbide (SiC) is an extremely resilient material capable of withstanding high temperatures and electrical stresses while also having superior anti-abrasion qualities. Pure SiC is an electrical insulator; however, with carefully applied impurities it can transform into a semiconductor material. Doping it with aluminum and boron leads to p-type semiconductors while doping it with nitrogen …
Silicon carbide (SiC) is an inorganic chemical compound composed of silicon and carbon, found naturally in moissanite mineral formation. Since 1893, SiC powder and crystal have been mass produced for use as an abrasive and component in long-lasting ceramic brakes and clutches. SiC is composed of several polytypes with various crystal structures and bandgaps, making …
