What is Carbide?
Carbide is the name of our company, but it is also the name of a sintered metal which is the main component of our tools. The metal is also known as tungsten, wolfram carbide or hard metal. The abrasive consists of grains of carbide of a particular size depending on the purpose which are welded onto a steel base.
These small metallic grains are the abrasive medium, making carbide extremely durable compared to sandpaper.
The test results to the right show that, used on a particular surface, sandpaper lasts 3 minutes, carbide coating lasts 8 hours - or 160 times longer than sandpaper!
Our tools are available in Grit 3 to 240, which means they can meet virtually all your sanding, grinding and surface treatment needs. .
