Description

Our polishing wheels consist of numerous layers of pure raw cotton fabric, which are joined together by high-quality linen machine twine. Thanks to precise calibration and random alignment of the layers, we guarantee low-vibration concentricity and a uniform polishing pattern.

Our "FULL ROUND" polishing wheels have been a proven standard for metal polishing for many years, from pre-polishing to a high-gloss finish. Thanks to our first-class cotton grades, our EICKELIT professional polishing wheels are particularly effective and enable safe and low-dust work.

Molton FM230 is a raw cotton cretonne that is finely napped and has a specific weight of approx. 200 g/m². The finish polishing wheels made from Molton FM230 are particularly suitable for high-gloss polishing of non-ferrous metals, paints and plastics.

Flannel FM230

Flannel FM230 is a raw cotton cretonne finely roughened on both sides with a specific weight of approx. 190 g/m². Polishing discs made of flannel FM230 are used in particular for high-gloss polishing on non-ferrous metals, varnish and plastics.

Bore Holes

We manufacture your desired bore individually for you. We cover every known bore diameter for industrial polishing machines *
If you need other bore diameters or special adapters (e.g. for hexagonal shafts, with keyways, etc.), we will be happy to manufacture them on request **

* Polishing discs drilled individually at the customer's request are excluded from exchange or return in accordance with our Terms of Cancellation.

** Observe safety regulations for the minimum diameter of drive shafts!

Quilted Seams

EICKELIT polishing discs have machine-sewn and easy-to-remove concentric quilting circles made of high-quality linen machine thread without synthetic fibers
Standard polishing discs have only one concentric stitching seam with a diameter of 50 - 80 mm (depending on the disc diameter)
On request, we produce additional stitching circles in evenly spaced radii *
We manufacture special spacing distributions on request

* Polishing discs manufactured with individual quilting circles at the customer's request are excluded from exchange or return in accordance with our Terms of Cancellation.

Application

Areas of Application

Cotton buffing discs are suitable as all-round buffing tools for all materials and finish levels, depending on the material to be buffed and the type of cotton chosen
Through adding concetric seams, the firmness of cotton buffing discs can be adjusted to individual needs. Quilted cotton buffing discs provide a sound counter pressure for particularly effective polishing
Quilted cotton buffing discs are preferably used for cut-buffing and high-gloss finish of steel and, in particular, of non-ferrous metals

Heat Build-up of Cotton Buffs

Due to their high performance with a comparatively low air flow, cotton buffing discs may build-up considerable amounts of frictional heat
This could lead to lokal overheating and thermal damage of workpiece surfaces and/or the fast and thus non economic consumption of the polishing disc through pyrolysis
In order to reduce the risk of the overheating of the workpiece and/or the buffing disc, you should adjust the contact pressure with particular care
Furthermore, you should pursuit the reduction of contact time with the workpiece to the absolute minimum necessary

Safety instructions

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.
