A Vitrified Bond Diamond Wheel is a super-tough cutting tool, like a specialized sandpaper on a spinning disk. Its special power is that it can sharpen itself as it works!
How It Stays Sharp:
Imagine the wheel is a chocolate chip muffin.
-
The vitrified bond is the muffin part.
-
The diamond grains are the chocolate chips.
As you use the wheel, the muffin part (the bond) wears down just a little bit faster than the super-hard diamond chips. The tiny pores help by letting coolant and dust escape, which keeps the wheel from getting too hot or clogged.
Why It’s a Great Tool:
-
Long-Lasting: It doesn’t wear out quickly.
-
Self-Sharpening: It constantly exposes fresh diamonds.
-
Stable: The glassy bond is very rigid, so it doesn’t change shape.
-
Fast and Efficient: It can remove material very quickly.
