Electroplated Bond Diamond / CBN Wheels
Electroplated Bond Diamond and CBN Wheels are precision-engineered grinding tools where a single layer of abrasive grains is bonded to the wheel surface using a nickel electroplating process. These wheels are designed for high cutting efficiency, complex profiles, and aggressive material removal, making them ideal for specialized and high-precision applications.
