Blue Aluminum Oxide
Blue Aluminum Oxide
High Temperature blue colored fused alumina is widely used for high grade grinding wheels, heavy duty grinding wheels and ultra thin cutting wheels working on tool steel, alloy steel, carbon steel, and stainless steel applications. This premium abrasive material delivers exceptional performance across the most demanding metalworking operations.
The main character is the distinctive blue color caused by the heat treatment of brown fused alumina processed at high temperature of 1300ºC-1350ºC. This specialized thermal processing creates unique material properties that enhance cutting performance and grinding efficiency significantly beyond conventional abrasives.
