Industrial professionals who fashion industrial parts pay close attention to high tolerances. Lapping and finishing help achieve acute dimensions on workpieces, and 3M™ Diamond Metal Bond Disc 6MB1 is designed to do just that — lap and finish on non-ferrous metals, carbides, ceramics and glass.

3M™ Diamond Metal Bond Disc 6MB1
For heavy stock removal, shaping, and lapping of hard-to-grind materials
Strike a Balance: Sharp Cut, Fine Finish
Balancing sharp cut with fine finish, we engineer our 3M™ Diamond Metal Bond Disc 6MB1 by adhering micron-graded diamond mineral to a flat brass plate. The electroplated adhesion process helps with uniform distribution of the mineral on the disc. A uniform pattern, in turn, helps deliver a consistent cut throughout the abrasive's life.

An Acute Requirement
We chose diamond mineral for this disc, because of its sharp and angular characteristics. This tough mineral can cut aggressively but still produce uniform scratch patterns. Moreover, we offer this diamond abrasive in a range of grades, so operators can choose the right grade for their unique application. Typically during lapping, operators will rotate lapping discs and plates at low speeds. The slow speed, in combination diamond mineral, helps remove surface damage but still produce the desired flatness and dimensions.

Use 3M™ Diamond Metal Bond Disc 6MB1 for applications that require superior surface finishes and for projects that need good precision and control. Commonly used in the general industrial, precision grinding and finishing and aerospace industries, it's a good abrasive to have on hand when achieving acute dimensions is key.
