Norton 041220015312 Diamond Grit Blue Grade 15 5g

Product Description

The NORTON 041220015312 is a diamond grit lapping and polishing compound formulated for fine finishing work. Supplied in a 5-gram container, this blue-coded Grade 15 compound contains diamond abrasive particles ranging from 10 to 22 microns in size. It is used to achieve tight surface finishes on hardened metals, carbide tooling, ceramics, and precision components. Technicians and toolroom machinists apply it during final lapping, honing, or hand-polishing stages where conventional abrasives fall short. The small package size suits bench-top precision work and minimizes waste on low-volume jobs.

This compound is suited for fine finishing operations in toolrooms, machine shops, and precision manufacturing environments. It performs well on flat lapping plates, stropping surfaces, and polishing laps when a controlled, consistent surface finish is required. The blue color coding identifies the Grade 15 grit range, making it easy to distinguish from coarser or finer grades when multiple compounds are in use at a single workstation.

Key Features

• Grade 15 diamond compound with a 10 to 22 micron grit range for fine finishing
• Blue color coding for quick grade identification during multi-stage polishing
• 5-gram container sized for precision bench work with minimal waste
• Diamond abrasive type provides consistent material removal on hardened and carbide surfaces
• Designed specifically for fine finish end-use operations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use fine finishing compound compatible with standard lapping plates, polishing laps, and stropping surfaces used in precision toolroom and machining applications.

Installation Notes

Diamond grit compounds are applied by trained machinists or toolroom technicians following standard lapping and polishing procedures. Ensure the workpiece and lapping surface are clean and free of contamination from coarser abrasive grades before applying this compound to avoid cross-contamination. Use dedicated applicators for each grade level. Consult applicable shop safety protocols for handling abrasive compounds, including proper eye and skin protection.
