Stainless Steel Available

Where complete freedom from rust is essential, we recommend 300 Series stainless steels. Most of these shapes are available in this corrosion-resistant material.

Let our lab determine the proper media for you parts

* Precise roundness is not required for the majority of steel media finishing applications. Thus, two small flat spots at opposite poles are not objectionable. Pole-flattened balls are less expensive to manufacture and customers benefit from these economies through lower prices.

Triangles, Straight Cut

AH-41, AX-44, CS-46, AX-90, N

FORTUNE STRAIGHT CUT TRIANGLES provide maximum surface contact on flat surfaces. The straight sided shape gives a blocky action that helps maximize the cutting action.

Random Shaped

Fortune XA

(Random shape, aluminum oxide abrasive)

Fortune XA is a fast-cutting media for use in the general finishing of ferrous metals, plastics and rubber. It combines good cut with long life, and deburrs and finishes in one operation. Recommended for parts where lodging problem is not critical. XA (gray, 130-140 pounds per cubic foot).

Fortune XB

(Extra tough, random-shaped aluminum oxide abrasive)

Designed for the finishing and deburring of ferrous and non-ferrous metals. It's a unique "coloring" abrasive, extremely durable, which makes it ideal for light burr removal, radius formation and surface refinements. Imparts high luster finishes on practically all types of metals. Close sizing minimizes wedging in work pieces. XB (brown, 130-140 pounds per cubic foot).
