How to choose a polishing wheel ？

Choosing a polishing wheel involves many considerations. Here, we'll take a detailed look at the working principles of a polishing machine's workpiece polishing needles. What are the methods for selecting polishing wheels for different workpieces?

When polishing workpieces with a circular polisher, different polishing wheels are required depending on the workpiece's material, diameter, and hardness.

1. Nylon wheels are made of nylon fiber mesh, mineral sand, and a bonding resin. These wheels offer advantages such as flexible grinding, cool cutting, and anti-clogging. Compared to grinding wheels of the same grit size, nylon wheels have finer, softer, and brighter lines. They have stronger cutting force than cloth and hemp wheels and are suitable for electroplating and mirror finishing.

2. Hemp wheels are also a commonly used polishing wheel, suitable for surface polishing of aluminum, electroplated products, and stainless steel.

3. For fine polishing of small workpieces, you can choose a non-stitched, full-cloth polishing wheel. This wheel is made of fine, soft cotton cloth and is suitable for polishing complex shapes. Stitched polishing wheels are made of coarse or non-woven cloth and are suitable for polishing coated surfaces.

4. Air-cooled cloth polishing wheels have a circular corrugated shape and a metal disc at the base. This type of polishing wheel is more suitable for polishing large workpieces.
