Open coat sandpaper strips cut to 12.7 mm x 160 mm strips
They include a pressure sensitive adhesive to attach the strip to the periphery of CS-0 (S-32) resilient wheels
Consists of a very fine aluminum oxide grit, graded as 180 ANSI-CAMI which has an average particle size that is approximately 78µm (0.00304 inches).
Applications include high pressure decorative laminates, wood flooring, plastics, furniture surfaces, paints and varnishes.

Correction Equation

In order to enable manufacturers and test laboratories to determine the abrasion resistance and a statement of conformity, the convenors of the EPLF Technical Working Group and CEN/TC 134/WG 9 recommend following the recommendation of Taber Industries under the current circumstances and correcting the determined test results by means of correction factor K.

The correction factor K shall be determined as follows: K = (Determined zinc abrasion rate according to ISO 24338 section 6.4 in mg / 100 mg) The zinc abrasion rate shall be determined at a height of (7.5 ± 0.5) mm above the test specimen holder (ISO 24338, Fig. 3, Key 4) by placing the zinc plate on a rigid and flat surface. This ensures that correction factors similar to those of real laminate flooring are achieved, as proven by studies. It is recommended to determine the zinc abrasion value of at least three pairs of sandpaper strips and to average the result. The correction factor K shall be multiplied by the test result.

Most published test methods provide sufficient details on which abrasive wheels to use. If you are following a particular standard, please refer to it for the appropriate wheel. If your application is not covered by an established procedure, deciding which abrading wheel is best determined with preliminary testing on the actual material. The ideal selection criterion is to reproduce, as nearly possible, the wear which the material will be subjected to in actual use. It is important to keep in mind that wear is a complex phenomenon that may not be exactly replicated through an accelerated abrasion test, and the abrasive wheels represent a limited subset of actual contact conditions that material surfaces will be subjected to while in service.
