Saint Gobain Abrasives has added to its comprehensive collection of coated, bonded and superabrasives with the launch of a new range of speciality coated abrasives under its Norton brand The new range has been launched in response to the growing need for small grinding and blending abrasive shapes to meet the standards required by modern industry

Containing the widest range of shapes, sizes and grains, the new range includes abrasives for general and specialist applications such as intricately shaped and contoured components or for high speed, accurate grinding.

The range also allows for the production of bespoke speciality abrasive production.
