Our EICKELIT shop will remain open for you during the Christmas and New Year holidays. However, all orders received after 19.12.2024 will only be processed and dispatched from 06.01.2025.
The EICKELIT team wishes you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 2025!
EICKELIT slashed abrasive cloth polishing brushes consist of multiple plies of slotted corundum abrasive cloth. At their first contact with the work piece surface, the fixing bars between the stripes break and a brush of hundreds of abrasive, very light, flexible and resistant stripes is created. Slashed abrasive polishing tools have a strong cooling effect and therefore are favored for gentle deburring, matting or grinding of profiled work pieces with delicate surfaces such as aluminum, plastic or wood.

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.
Slashed abrasive is made from high quality abrasive cloth that has been laser cut into 6 mm wide stripes. The fine ridges between the stripes only break at the first contact of the polishing tool with the work piece. The released hundreds of abrasive, very light, flexible and resistant abrasive stripes form a very soft brush for gentle abrasive tasks on delicate surfaces.
Corundum / Aluminum Oxide (AO)
Corundum consists of> 95% aluminum oxide and is the most frequently used grinding tool on bonded abrasives. However, as the degree of purity increases, the hardness and brittleness of corundum increase, which has a rather negative effect on the longevity of the abrasive grain and thus the uniformity of the grinding pattern. That is why we mainly use abrasive fleeces with doped and consequently more ductile types of corundum. On the one hand, this increases the service life of the polishing tools and, on the other hand, the grinding pattern looks more balanced compared to undoped aluminum oxide.
Areas of Application
Deburring of profiled workpieces and cutting edges
Processing of thermoplastics below the melting or decomposition temperature
Grinding of complex profiles and shapes in the woodworking industry
Gentle matting of aluminum profiles
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.
