Cratex 1349 Xf Rubberized Abrasive Taper Point 240 Grit

Product Description

The CRATEX 1349 XF is an unmounted rubberized abrasive point in a taper shape, designed for fine deburring, blending, and surface finishing on metal and other hard materials. This point uses silicon carbide abrasive bonded in a rubberized matrix, which allows it to conform slightly to contours while delivering a very fine, 240-grit cut. At 1 inch maximum diameter and 1.25 inches in length, it fits a 1/4-inch arbor and is rated for up to 20,000 RPM. Machinists, tool-and-die workers, and metal fabricators use rubberized abrasive points like this one for polishing, cleaning up weld zones, and reaching tight internal surfaces.

This abrasive point is suited for precision finishing work in machining and fabrication environments. The taper geometry makes it effective for working inside bores, cavities, and angled surfaces where flat or cylindrical tools cannot reach. Very fine grade abrasives at 240 grit are typically chosen for finishing passes after coarser stock removal is complete, producing a smooth, refined surface. The part ships unmounted and requires a rotary tool, die grinder, or flex-shaft machine with a 1/4-inch collet or chuck.

Key Features

• Taper shape reaches confined areas, bores, and contoured cavities
• Very fine 240-grit silicon carbide for smooth finishing passes
• Rubberized bond matrix allows mild flex and conforms to surface geometry
• Rated to 20,000 RPM for use with standard die grinders and rotary tools
• 1/4-inch arbor hole fits common collet sizes on die grinders and flex-shaft machines
• Unmounted - no mandrel included; requires separate 1/4-inch collet or chuck

Compatibility

Designed for use with die grinders, rotary tools, and flex-shaft machines fitted with a 1/4-inch collet or chuck capable of operating at up to 20,000 RPM.

Installation Notes

This abrasive point is installed by inserting the arbor into a 1/4-inch collet or chuck and tightening securely before operation. Always verify the tool spindle speed does not exceed the 20,000 RPM rating marked on this product. Wear appropriate eye protection and secure the workpiece before running the grinder. Inspect the abrasive point for cracks or damage before each use and discard if any deterioration is found.
