What is a diamond flat lap disc used for?

Diamond flat lap discs are used for grinding, shaping, and pre-polishing gemstones, minerals, and glass on a flat lap machine. They provide a consistent, flat grinding surface for precise material removal.

What is the advantage of magnetic grinding discs?

Magnetic flat lap discs attach instantly to compatible magnetic lap machines without tools, allowing fast disc changes between grit sizes during a lapidary session.

When should I use an arbor disc?

Arbor-mount discs are ideal for standard lapidary arbors where a secure, centered fit is required. They are compatible with most bench-top lap machines.

What are dot flat lap discs?

Dot-pattern flat lap discs feature a raised dot surface that channels water and clears swarf during wet grinding, reducing heat buildup and extending disc life.

Which grit size flat lap disc should I start with?

Start with a coarse grit (60–120) for initial shaping and material removal, progress through medium grits (220–600) for refining, and finish with fine grits (1200–3000+) for pre-polishing before moving to polishing pads.
