What Is Brown Fused Alumina Oxide as Coated Abrasive?

▸ This product is a brown fused alumina grain selected for coated abrasive backing systems such as cloth, paper, fiber and film.

▸ P grade particle size and grain shape are controlled to support uniform coating, cutting consistency and surface finish quality.

▸ It is widely used for metal sanding, wood sanding, stainless steel finishing, flap discs and abrasive belt production.

Key Performance Characteristics

P Grade Particle Size: Particle size distribution is controlled for coated abrasive production and surface finish consistency.

Sharp Cutting Edges: Angular grain shape supports fast stock removal and good sanding efficiency.

Good Adhesion Support: Clean grain surface and stable size distribution help support resin bonding on coated abrasive backings.

Controlled Bulk Density: Bulk density and particle shape can be reviewed to support coating weight and product design.

Application Flexibility: Available P grits can be used for sanding belts, discs, sheets, rolls and abrasive sleeves.
