Faq

What means the marking of grain size?

It is the number of sieve´s meshes (whereby the grain of main fraction just falls through) on the length of one inch (25,4mm). The bigger is the number of grain size, the smaller is the size of grain.

Are all grains the same ?

No, each grain size can contain according to the norm also the shares of rougher and finer fractions.

What the warehousing conditions have to be ?

  • The temperature 15 – 20°C
  • The relative humidity of air 40 – 50 %.

Why do the sheets by stocking "twist"?

It is caused owing to unsuitable storage conditions.
When it is the low humidity of air, the abrasive material can twist „with the grain out“.
When it is the high humidity of air, the abrasive material can twist „with the grain in“.

What terminology is used ?

  • Rolls – it is the band of abrasive material on the underlay (with the existing width in mm and length in m) wrapped into the roll.
  • Endless belt – it is the connected band of abrasive material (with the existing width in mm and length in mm).
  • Sheet – it is the abrasive material in the shape of rectangle (most often in dimension 230 x 280mm).
  • Disc – it is the abrasive material of circular (areal) shape.
  • Grinding or cutting wheel – it is the compact abrasive material with reinforcement of circular shape and existing thickness (e.g. 125mm x 1,6mm x 22,2mm).
  • Multi-plate wheel – they are the small plates of abrasive material on the underlay glued on the „forehead“ of carrying disc.

How should I specify the order ?

Please indicate on the order :

  • the shape (rolls, endless belts, sheets, discs, multi-plate wheels)
  • the type (e.g. 175)
  • when you do not know the type, please mention at least the required background material (paper or cloth)
  • the required dimension (width and length of endless belt in mm, by rolls the width in mm and length in m, by discs the diameter in mm, by sheets the dimension 230 x 280mm)


The exact specification is very important for not to receive the order such as „abrasive paper on cloth“.

When I do not know which suitable type should I choose ?

Our workers will help you with the choice of suitable type – see the section of contacts.

Do you send the deliveries to customer or is it necessary the personal taking ?

We daily send the goods through the Czech Post (parcel), the bigger orders we send according to agreement through the feeder service. The personal taking is possible of course.
We can also hand over the goods to your given transporter.
