Ceramics

There are several different types of ceramic materials including ceramic AO, ceramic AZ and what is referred to full ratio ceramic. Ceramic is manufactured by combining bauxite, just like regular AO, with other materials in a chemical bonding process. This chemical bonding results in raw grain that is very porous and coral-like in appearance. The full ratio would be the strongest, the ceramic AZ would be next in strength and the ceramic AO would fall last. Of course, the higher the pure ceramic content the more expensive the material. Ceramics were created for rough grinding on metal but have crossed over into lots of other areas where sanding is done. But keep in mind you'll get the most value for your dollar using it in the grits where removal or dimensioning work is being performed and then using regular AO or SC for the more intermediate and finishing grits.

Did you know?

Natural grain colors are:

AO – brown, pink, white
SC – black
AZ – blue, blue/gray
Ceramic - white

Abrasive manufacturers can make their product any color they chose to simply by adding dye to the size coat in the making process. Therefore, you should not rely on grain color to inform you of grain type. Also, the addition of stearates and lubricants can make it hard to tell original grain color. Always choose a grain based on the application and the machinery involved.
