UNIVERSAL MACHINE COMPATIBILITY: Fits any lapidary or faceting machine with a 1/2" arbor. Recommended operating speed for 8" discs is 1000-2500 RPM with a maximum of 3200 RPM. Not recommended for use on metals.
PRECISION-ENGINEERED PERFORMANCE: Constructed on a precision ground flat aluminum master and plated with ultra-fine diamond for high-clarity facet refinement, bonded with a hard electroplated nickel, and smooth pre-polish preparation before final finishing.
SUPERIOR PLATING QUALITY: World-class machining and plating ensure consistent cutting performance with minimal loose diamond, reducing scratches and eliminating the need for dressing before use on gemstones, glass, stone, and ceramic materials.
WATER-ASSISTED CUTTING RELIABILITY: Always operate with proper water flow to prevent swarf buildup; insufficient water can clog the lap and slow cutting. If clogging occurs, wash thoroughly with a large amount of dish soap to release trapped material.
MADE IN THE USA & INDUSTRY LEADERSHIP: Proudly manufactured in the United States, Crystalite continues its long American-made tradition and is backed by Abrasive Technology, a global innovator in superabrasive tools since 1971.
