FLINT ABRASIVE ... Poor to
fair cutting power with short
durability, used for light sanding rd

and roughing operations.

GARNET ... Red to reddish-
brown abrasive with good cutting
power and good durability. Still a
favorite of many cabinet makers
who prefer it over manmade grit.

EMERY ... The familiar black
abrasive usually bonded to a blue
fabric backing. Medium cutting
power and poor durability, this
product is usually used in metal
finishing.

ALUMINUM OXIDE ... A man
made reddish brown or white
abrasive, probably the most widely
wey used today. It has a good to ex-
pa cellent durability with excellent

cutting power. It is used primarily
for woodworking but can also be
used for metal working.
