Magnesium Bond Diamond Fickerts are cost-effective consumables designed for fully automatic continuous granite polishing lines.
Binder Core Materials:
- Magnesium oxide and magnesium chloride cure to form a magnesite matrix; silicon carbide or diamond abrasives are embedded within. Curing occurs at room temperature-eliminating the need for high-temperature sintering-resulting in low production costs.
Universal Specifications:
- Standard L140mm size compatible with global standards; fits various 12/ 16, and 20-head automatic granite polishing lines from manufacturers such as Breton, Simec, and Intermac.
(magnesium bond diamond fickert size)
Applicable Grits:
- Concentrated in the 120#–1500# (medium-to-fine) range; serves as the transitional grinding stage between coarse grinding (using metal abrasive blocks) and fine polishing (using resin-bond diamond abrasives).
Cheefung Product Features
1 Low heat generation during grinding; minimizes risk of stone scorching
The resilient matrix offers superior cushioning and heat dissipation compared to metal grinding segments; it prevents scorch marks when processing light-colored granite or quartzite and is compatible with high-speed continuous production lines.
2 Refined surface finish with smooth polishing transitions
Produces uniform, fine scratch patterns during the intermediate grinding stage, facilitating a high-gloss finish in subsequent polishing steps; a standard choice for transition grinding on standard granite slab production lines.
3 Flexible supply and small-batch trial orders
Short production lead times; no high-temperature sintering required; supports low-MOQ sample orders-an ideal choice for new overseas customers conducting production line trials.
Applicable Processing Scenarios and Stone Types
1. Suitable Materials
- Granite slabs, strips, dimensional stone tiles, standard engineered quartz slabs, and terrazzo;
2. Not Recommended For
- High-hardness luxury stones, quartzite, rough grinding of thick, irregularly shaped slabs, or continuous 24-hour ultra-large-scale production lines;
3. Standard Production Line Process Sequence
- Metal-bond Fickert (coarse grinding/calibration: #30/#50/#80) →
- Magnesite abrasive blocks (medium grinding: #120–#800) →
- Resin-bond diamond Fickert (high-gloss polishing: #1500/#3000) →
- Fickert brush (antique/leather finish).
Perhaps the issue you are concerned about
Question1: Is magnesium bond fickert cheaper than resin diamond fickert?
Answer1: Yes, raw material and production cost is much lower, perfect for mass production of standard granite slabs with strict budget control.
Q2: What grits are magnesium fickert blocks available?
A2: Main grit range #120, #180, #320, #400, #600, #800, #1500 for medium grinding transition process.
Q3: Can magnesium fickert work for hard quartzite & luxury stone?
A3: Not recommended. It wears fast on high-density luxury stone, we suggest custom resin diamond fickert for quartzite and onyx.
Q4: How long is the service life vs metal fickert?
A4: Its service life is only 1/3 ~ 1/2 of metal bond fickert, suitable for small & medium stone factories without 24h continuous production.
Q5: Do you supply L140 standard magnesium fickert for Breton polishing line?
A5: All our magnesium fickert blocks adopt L140 international standard size, fully compatible with all global automatic granite polishing machines.
