TLC stocks  tungsten carbide cutting wheels in many configurations of 4.0mm and 2.5mm diameter wheels:

• Standard, polished or unpolished , variety of angles
• TAP, polished or unpolished, variety of angles
• Deep Cut  (2.5 mm only)

Wheel specifications, (angle, ID, OD, thickness, and grind - polished/unpolished), all contribute to resultant cutting quality and afterbreak yield. There are guidelines to follow for each type of substrate (soda lime, borosilicate, aluminosilicate, quartz, sapphire, etc.), but each one may vary.

To determine an optimum wheel for each product requires test and analysis for each substrate. Unfortunately, there is no "set" formula of cutting parameters, as there are many variables.

Please e-mail ( ) or fax (+1 602 866-8280) the following information for TLC to recommend/provide suitable wheels for each substrate:
