What is CBN (Cubic Boron Nitride)?
CBN abrasive is a similar product to synthetic industrial diamonds. CBN is composed of nitrogen and boron as rigid crystals – second in hardness only to diamond. A single layer of CBN grit on the surface of a metal wheel can grind the most rigid steel. CBN grinding wheels have been used in manufacturing processes for many years and are now available for standard bench grinders. CBN crystals are electroplated onto a precision grinding wheel substrate, resulting in today’s finest grinding wheels. Our electroplated CBN grinding wheels are machined from steel, electroplated with a layer of CBN grit, and nickel-plated. A CBN wheel is far better suited for sharpening high-speed steels and will withstand the friction from grinding with much less heat produced than with a diamond wheel.
