POLINOX® convolute wheels produce matte surface finishes. POLINOX® convolute wheels are made of spiral-shaped, non-woven abrasive which is wound around a core and foamed up. The foam supports the non-woven component and positively impacts its service life and abrasive performance. This particular bond results in non-woven wheels with a very good surface finish, high stock removal rate and long service life. These properties are particularly apparent when deburring, blending, finishing and polishing soft metals, alloyed and high-alloy steels, in addition to titanium alloys.;The wheels can be used on stationary machines and bench grinders, as well as portable power tools like straight grinders. Dressing the wheels allows them to adapt to different workpiece geometries. Medium-hard version with increased edge strength and extended service life, for tough deburring and cleaning applications.

Pferdergonomics:
PFERDERGONOMICS recommends POLINOX® convolute wheels to reduce vibration, noise, and dust produced during use and to improve comfort when working.
Recommendations for use:
Considerably reduce peripheral speed for work on materials with poor heat-conducting properties, e.g. titanium and stainless steel.
Recommendations for use 1:
For the best performance, use with a recommended peripheral speed of 4,000 SFPM. This provides an ideal compromise between stock removal rate, surface quality, thermal load on the workpiece and tool wear.
Safety notes:
For safety reasons, the maximum permitted rotational speed indicated must never be exceeded.
Safety notes 1:
The spiral-wound construction requires that these wheels only be run in a single indicated direction. Failure to do so will lead to destruction of the wheel and increased risk of accidents.
