Cratex 6803 M Oblong Abrasive Stick Silicon Carbide Medium

Product Description

The CRATEX 6803 M is a rubber-bonded silicon carbide oblong abrasive stick designed for precision deburring, honing, and surface finishing on metal, stainless steel, and glass. The stick measures 1 inch wide, 3/8 inch thick, and 6 inches long, making it easy to handle during bench or hand operations. The medium grade abrasive formulation provides an effective cut rate while leaving a clean, controlled finish. The rubber bond cushions the abrasive grain against the workpiece, reducing the risk of gouging on delicate or finished surfaces. Machinists, toolmakers, and fabricators reach for this stick when chasing burrs from bores, slots, and edges where power tooling cannot reach.

This abrasive stick is suited for use in machine shops, metal fabrication facilities, and maintenance shops. It performs on a broad range of materials including mild steel, stainless steel, and glass. The oblong profile fits naturally into slots, keyways, and flat recessed surfaces. It is equally useful on a bench stone setup or as a hand-held finishing tool for spot work on assemblies. No special equipment is required, making it a practical addition to any tool kit where hand finishing is part of the workflow.

Installation Notes

No power tools or mounting hardware are required for use. Secure the workpiece before applying the stick to avoid movement during finishing. Wear appropriate eye protection and gloves when deburring metal edges. Inspect the stick before each use and discard if cracking or unusual wear is present.
