8" Sintered Diamond Faceting Laps

Sintered Diamond Faceting Laps are an excellent choice for those who demand high-quality and consistent performance from their lapidary tools. Unlike standard diamond laps, which have a thin layer of diamond electroplated onto the surface, sintered diamond laps have a very thick cutting matrix of 5mm. This provides a longer lifespan and steady, aggressive cutting performance that remains consistent from the first facet to the last.
If you are new to using sintered faceting laps, it is recommended that you order one grit size larger than plated or brazed parts to ensure optimal performance. This is because sintered laps are designed to cut more aggressively and efficiently than plated or brazed laps.
With a sintered lap, you can expect a lifetime of steady and reliable performance, as they are built to withstand heavy use and maintain their cutting ability over time. While they may cost 3-4 times more than the bonded variety, the investment is well worth it for those who demand the best from their lapidary tools.
The 600 grit sintered lap available on the market has a sintered layer of 5mm, a sintered width of 50mm, and a total thickness of 15-20mm. This makes it an ideal choice for those who require a large cutting surface and consistent, reliable performance.(60 grit sintered diamond laps,80 grit sintered diamond laps,100 grit sintered diamond laps,150 grit sintered diamond laps,180 grit sintered diamond laps,220 grit sintered diamond laps,280 grit sintered diamond laps,320 grit sintered diamond laps,360 grit sintered diamond laps,600 grit sintered diamond laps)
