Value Collection 399-1013 Silicon Carbide Finishing Stick

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 399-1013 is a half-round silicon carbide toolroom finishing stick designed for hand-finishing, deburring, and surface preparation of metal parts and tooling. Silicon carbide abrasive cuts fast on hard materials and delivers consistent stock removal on ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces. The half-round profile allows the technician to work both flat surfaces and curved or contoured areas with a single tool. At a coarse grade, this stick is suited for aggressive material removal, smoothing machined surfaces, and cleaning up edges before finer finishing operations. Measuring 4 inches long by 0.25 inches wide and weighing approximately 0.014 pounds, it is a compact, easy-to-handle tool for bench or field use.

This finishing stick is used in toolrooms, machine shops, and maintenance environments where hand-lapping, mold finishing, die work, or edge preparation is required. Coarse-grade silicon carbide is well-suited for initial material removal on hardened steel, cast iron, ceramics, and non-ferrous alloys. It is commonly used by tool-and-die makers, machinists, and maintenance technicians who need a portable, no-power abrasive solution for tight tolerances or hard-to-reach areas. The half-round shape makes it practical for both flat surfaces and radius or concave profiles encountered in mold cavities and die work.

Key Features

• Silicon carbide abrasive material provides fast cutting action on hard and brittle workpiece materials
• Half-round profile addresses both flat and curved surfaces with a single stick
• Coarse grade for aggressive stock removal and initial surface preparation
• Compact size at 4 inches long by 0.25 inches wide for access to confined areas
• Lightweight at 0.014 pounds for extended hand use without fatigue
• Black silicon carbide construction for consistent abrasive performance across the full length

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose hand finishing stick suitable for use on hardened steels, cast iron, ceramics, carbide, and non-ferrous metals in toolroom and maintenance applications.

Installation Notes

This finishing stick is a hand-applied abrasive tool requiring no power source or mounting hardware. Secure the workpiece firmly before use and apply consistent hand pressure along the working surface. Eye protection and appropriate work gloves are recommended when using abrasive sticks, as silicon carbide particles can become airborne during use. Keep the stick dry and store it away from impact to prevent chipping.
