Silicon Carbide Green 40/60 mesh

High-Purity SiC for Demanding Industrial Applications

Green silicon carbide is distinguished by its extreme purity (typically >99% SiC) and sharp, crystalline structure. Unlike lower-grade black SiC or mineral abrasives, green SiC offers superior friability, meaning it fractures under pressure to continuously expose new, sharp cutting edges. This self-sharpening characteristic makes it exceptionally efficient for processing hard, brittle, or heat-sensitive materials where a cool, fast cut is essential.

The 40/60 mesh grade provides a balanced particle size distribution, making it versatile for both aggressive stock removal and achieving a controlled surface profile. It is widely used in pressure blasting systems, suction blasting cabinets, and as a raw material for grinding wheels and coated abrasives.

Key Features and Benefits

• High Purity (>99% SiC): Minimizes the risk of metallic contamination on sensitive substrates like stainless steel, titanium, and non-ferrous alloys.
• Sharp, Angular Grain: Delivers a fast cutting action and consistent anchor profile for superior coating adhesion.
• High Friability: Continuously self-sharpens under impact, maintaining a high work rate and reducing abrasive consumption over time compared to less friable media.
• Versatile 40/60 Mesh: An ideal balance for both rapid material removal and controlled surface finishing in a single abrasive grade.

Industrial Applications

This abrasive is trusted across multiple industries for critical preparation and finishing tasks. Common applications include:

• Precision Blasting: Cleaning and texturing hard metals, carbide tooling, glass etching, and ceramic surface preparation.
• Lapping and Polishing: Used as a loose abrasive for fine lapping of seals, valves, and precision components.
• Bonded Abrasives: A key raw material in the manufacture of vitrified and resinoid grinding wheels for carbide and high-speed steel grinding.
• Wire Sawing: Employed as a slurry abrasive for slicing silicon ingots, quartz, and other hard crystals.
