Diamond Files Product information Galvanically bonded diamond tools Metal base body Tool structure The main feature of galvanically bonded tools is the single-layer coating with diamond or CBN grain. The fixation of the abrasive grains on a metal base body by an electrochemically deposited nickel layer is referred to as the coating. The nickel layer corresponds Diamond Files Recommendations for use: approximately to half of the grain diameter Diamond files are successfully used wherever ■■Apply only slight pressure to the file, used. conventional files fail due to the hardness of especially in workpiece edge areas the material to be machined. ■■Clogged diamond files can be cleaned in Advantages: kerosene or anti-static plastic cleaner using ■■Shortened processing time due to the Note: a file brush.
