Buffing Wheel KONSTANT | Cotton "Medium Firm" | 150 mm
Material: N16
4x4 layers
Diameter 150 mm
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION KONSTANT 4-4 / diameter 150 mm
KONSTANT 4-4 polishing tools are ventilating high-performance polishing discs that are particularly suitable for preliminary and main polishing of non-ferrous metals and stainless steel. Four layers of a 4-ply composite made of raw cotton fabric twisted diagonally against the weaving direction and arranged in a spiral around a cardboard core create a solid contact pressure. The pleated folds of the KONSTANT 4-4 polishing discs ensure effective cooling of the workpieces, even at high work rates.

COTTON QUALITY
For our professional polishing discs, we only use Oeko-Tex® certified fabrics made from raw cotton from controlled cultivation areas. All of the plain weave cotton cretonnes we use are 100% free of synthetic fibres. For this reason, our polishing discs wear down evenly and are particularly dust-free.
N16 is a light raw cotton fabric with a specific weight of approx. 190 g/m². Depending on the design of the polishing tool, N16 is particularly suitable for polishing surfaces of non-ferrous metals, plastics and varnish.

APPLICATIONS Konstant Polishing Discs
KONSTANT polishing discs are used in particular for pre- and main polishing. Due to our extensive range of cotton fabrics, KONSTANT polishing discs are suitable for polishing a wide range of materials.
Due to the pleated fabric created from several panels, KONSTANT polishing discs provide a firm counter-pressure. They are therefore firmer than EFFEKTA polishing discs, but softer than polishing discs made of full-round cotton sheets. With their Z-shaped folds, KONSTANT polishing tools generate a strong air flow and therefore have a cooling effect. KONSTANT polishing discs are particularly characterized by homogeneous polishing patterns on surfaces.
Protective Equipment when Polishing
When grinding and polishing, the work equipment used creates considerable health risks. It is therefore compulsory to wear suitable personal protective equipment for work safety when grinding and polishing. In particular, all rotating polishing and brushing tools may only be operated with suitable covers for reasons of occupational safety.
Wear eye / face protection
The fine dust emanating from polishing is harmful to the eyes. Flying parts can cause serious injuries to the face and eyes.
Wear respiratory protection
Fine dust contaminated with heavy metals and respirable, which can only be retained with suitable respiratory protection, is produced during polishing.
Wear protective clothing
Flying parts can cause sensitive injuries all over the body.
Wear gloves
In general, gloves should be worn when grinding and polishing. If there is a risk of being wound up (e.g. drills, processing small parts, etc.), gloves may be prohibited on the basis of a risk assessment.
Wear ear protection
Due to the noise exposure during grinding and polishing, it is necessary to wear suitable hearing protection on a regular basis.
