Frequently Asked Questions

  • Q: What is the difference between the 1/2" aluminium master lap and the 1/4"-20 screwback lap?
    A: The 1/2" aluminium master lap is a flat backing plate that accepts lapping film discs and flat lap discs with 1/2" center hole mounting. The 1/4"-20 screwback lap threads directly onto the faceting machine spindle (right or left hand) and provides a flat surface for mounting lapping film and polishing pads. Choose based on your faceting machine's spindle configuration.
  • Q: How do I choose right-hand vs left-hand thread?
    A: Match the thread hand to your faceting machine spindle. Most US faceting machines use right-hand thread. Check your machine manual to confirm before ordering.
