General Overview
|
|
Aluminum Oxide is one of the most common woodworking abrasives. It exhibits a high degree of friability. This means that when heat and pressure are applied it fragments. This is highly desirable because when Aluminum Oxide fragments it creates new sharp edges. This self-renewing property allows aluminum Oxide to last longer than most other sandpapers.
