Water Soluble Diamond Compounds
Saint-Gobain Surface Conditioning's Amplex brand water-soluble diamond compounds deliver an excellent surface finish on a variety of hard metals.
Through our extensive knowledge in processing and sizing diamond powders, Saint-Gobain offers tight control of oversized particles to minimize scratching. We can apply our expertise in formulation chemistry to customize a compound that meets your specific application need.
WS-HV Compound
WS-HV is Saint-Gobain’s most widely used water-soluble diamond compound. The perfect choice for a variety of general lapping and polishing applications, WS-HV contains a mixture of synthetic lubricants and surfactants that make it completely soluble in water. The compound can be diluted and lubricated with Saint-Gobain’s WS Thinner.
W772C Compound
Saint-Gobain W772C is a water-soluble diamond compound designed specifically for polishing wire dies, where compound flow inside the hole of the die is critical. Its relatively low viscosity compared to other compounds allows W772C to flow slowly inside the die, for precise performance.
Applications
- Wire die and mold polishing
- Polishing hard metals (Rockwell C of 45 or greater)
Benefits
- Delivers consistent performance, time after time
- Precision-graded diamond
- Statistical processed controlled, ISO certified manufacturing
- Semi-automated manufacturing process minimizes contamination and handling errors
- Knowledgeable application engineers available for consultation
