Cratex® Large Wheels

Cratex® Large Wheels

Get smooth, controlled finishes with Cratex Large Rubberized Abrasive Wheels, designed for use on bench motors and polishing lathes. Made from a premium, oil-resistant rubber bond combined with silicon carbide abrasive grains, these wheels provide a cushioned, free-cutting action that removes burrs, surface deposits, and tool marks without gouging or distorting the workpiece.

 

Cratex wheels are ideal for cleaning, deburring, edge-breaking, flash removal, and polishing metals, plastics, and castings. The resilient rubber matrix keeps the abrasive cutting evenly while delivering a soft, refined finish that enhances performance and appearance. Suitable for both precision jewelry work and mold and die finishing, they excel at restoring smooth surfaces and preparing parts for final polish. Made in Mexico.
