The centerless grinding and polishing center is a five-headed abrasive belt grinding and polishing system. We can grind steel tubes and bars in OD’s from .50’’ to 3’’ in diameter, with RMS finishes of 10 or less. We give both cold- and hot-rolled steel products a mirror finish. When your product is polished, it will be ready for any type of plating or coating.
Benefits of Centerless Grinding and Polishing
Centerless steel grinding is a fast, easy and accurate method for finishing tubular metal parts that need a tight tolerance. Our centerless grinding service will produce steel tubes that are perfectly smooth and cylindrical and will do so quickly. Our centerless grinding and polishing equipment moves extremely fast, making this an ideal alternative if you work in an industry where you need a high volume of ground, metal parts.
