Drills
Cobalt Steel & Diamond Plated Step Drills are
used to drill wood, precious metals, mild steel,
bone, and mother of pearl. Cobalt Steel, Diamond
Plated & Diamond Coated Twist Drills, made of
wire gauge steel, can drill extremely fine holes in
stone, ceramics, tile, glass, and hard metals.
Plated Diamond Points & Discs

as tungsten and tantalum carbide cutting tools,
dies and molds, broaches, and for grinding and
pre-polishing synthetic jewels and precious met-
als, fiberglass, reinforced plastics, PVC
and ceramics.
Sanding Drums, Bands, and Discs
These are used for removing rust, smoothing
rough surfaces and for sanding jobs on wood,
plastic and metal. (Avoid using too much pres-
sure which will cause clogging or a build-up on
the work surface.) For best results, use medium
speeds for coarser grits and larger diameters. Use
higher speeds for finishing work or with smaller
sizes. Unique 3M Ceramic Purple Coated Abra-
sive Bands and Discs contain patented Cubitron
ceramic aluminum oxide mineral that sharpens
itself with use. They last 2 to 4 times longer than
traditional aluminum oxide discs and remove
material faster with less heat and loading.
Cotton or Felt Bobs and Buffs
Solid Felt Buffs or Bobs are used in combination
with gritty or smooth compounds for a variety of
buffing and polishing operations on plastic, wood,
and metal. They vary in shape and come in three
hardnesses — medium, hard, and rock hard.
Loosely-stitched Soft Cotton Buffs are used
for delicate work on precious metal and during
polishing operations. Generally use high speeds
for cutting down and buffing. Medium speeds are
used for more delicate, precise work and
for polishing.
Brushes
Miniature Power Brushes are generally used on
metal surfaces and hard-to-reach areas. They
are ideal for deburring, surface finishing, edge
blending, roughening to create a good bonding
surface, and general cleaning. Use high speeds
for cleaning and deburring. Medium speeds are
needed when cleaning hard-to-reach areas and
edge blending.

addition to Emery, Tripoli, and Red and White
Rouges, there is unique Platinum Blue for pre-
polishing and cutting down platinum and other
metals, and for final polishing unique Platinum
