Coated surfaces are common place everywhere. Our abrasives for paints, varnish, filler and putty are an excellent choice for hand grinding and work with hand-operated and stationary machinery.

Machines
The perfect tool at every step of the work process
No matter which machine you choose to use as a tool for solving your specific application problem: Klingspor abrasives deliver superior performance and reliable results during cutting, stock removal and finishing.
Cutting off
The ability to cut off material in a quick and efficient manner is of the utmost importance in a great number of our customers' applications. No less important are a long service life and the aspect of safety during the use of these fast-rotating abrasive tools. Fully compliant with oSA guidelines and the European safety standard EN 12413, our cutting tools satisfy the strictest safety standards.
Stock removal
"Crucial for tools used for stock removal are an aggressive grinding behaviour, resulting in the greatest possible removal performance, and minimum strain on the user's body."
Finishing
Proper finishing must produce smooth and even surfaces and work results that can be reproduced consistently. We support our users in their effort to accomplish these goals with such technological innovations as the anti-static coating ACT.
