Marrose Abrasives manufacture a full range of rubber bonded abrasive wheels (elastic abrasives) for blending and polishing operations on aircraft engine (jet/gas turbine) parts, specifically turbine blades.

Wheels are available for light grinding and polishing  of Ni-Cr Steels and Titanium, in use they give low vibration at the hand/arm of the operator, are easy to use giving controlled metal removal and low risk of damage to the turbine blade.

Surface finished  is improved with a higher bearing area compared to conventional grinding with vitrified or CBN tools, helping to reduce induced grinding stresses prior to subsequent surface treatments such as blasting or plating.

A full range of diameters and thicknesses are available for off-hand grinding (bench/pedestal grinder) ranging from  Diameter 25mm (1″) through to 200mm (8″) and thickness 6mm (1/4″) through to  25mm (1″) typically.
