Diamond Paste – precise polishing for defined surfaces

We manufacture diamond pastes, among others, for on-site (portable) metallographic preparation, tool and mold making, and precise surface finishing. Compared to suspensions, diamond paste adheres more strongly to the polishing tool. You can dose precisely, condition new polishing cloths cleanly, and achieve reproducible results – from 45 µm down to 0.25 µm.

Product features

Grit sizes: 0.25 | 1 | 3 | 6 | 9 | 15 | 45 µm (industry-standard gradation, extended)
Diamond types: polycrystalline (many cutting edges, fast stock removal) and monocrystalline (narrow particle size distribution, defined finish)
Carrier medium: water/oil system for glide and even distribution
Packaging: syringes with color-coded cap and label by grit

Applications

Metallography/material testing: steels, non-ferrous metals, alloys
Ceramics/carbides: technical ceramics, carbide cutting edges
Optics/glass: defined high-gloss finishes
Mold and tool making: polishing of functional surfaces

Advantages over diamond suspension

Higher local diamond concentration on the cloth/carrier
Better adhesion on polishing cloths and discs
Precise dosing with a clean process window
Ideal for conditioning new cloths

Grit and color coding

45 µm – rough stock removal/initial polish (Blue)
15 µm – pre-polish/levelling (Red)
9 µm – intermediate polish (Orange)
6 µm – fine polish (Green)
3 µm – high gloss (Yellow)
1 µm – final fine polish (White)
0.25 µm – mirror finish (Grey)

Note: The color codes on the caps allow quick identification and help avoid cross-contamination by mixing up paste closures.

Lubricants

Lubricants: water-/oil-based additives for a consistent polishing track

Technical specifications

Syringe sizes: 5, 10, 20 g
