Abrasive materials: features and application

Abrasive materials are special materials intended for surface treatment. They are used in a variety of fields including construction, automotive, machine tool manufacturing, and home appliances.

The word "abrasive" comes from the Latin word "abrasio", which means "to scrape off". This means that abrasive tools are designed to remove unwanted deposits and imperfections from a surface.

Many of them can be used to treat almost any type of surface. This saves time and money when carrying out repair work. Abra
