In addition, a new Abrasives Process Solutions program featuring a highly advanced robotic cell for optimizing customer grinding applications will be presented at the show.
Some of the latest Norton abrasives include:
- New: Norton BlazeX F980 Fiber Discs with premium ceramic alumina micro-fracturing grain are ideal for a wide range of grinding processes in stainless steel and harder-to-grind materials. New proprietary COOL FRICTION technology dissipates heat during the grind, reducing rework and extending the life of Norton BlazeX F980 Fiber Discs. The discs are the latest addition to the BlazeX “Best Tier” portfolio, which also includes BlazeX F970 Fiber and Quick-Change Discs for carbon steel and soft-to-grind materials.

An improved, heavy-duty polyester backing is designed for long life and will withstand challenging applications.
- New: Norton Rapid Polish Depressed Center and Quick-Change Discs offer a felt wool polishing pad for a high shine finish which can be used with or without polishing compound.
