Value Collection 399-1116 Silicon Carbide Finishing Stick

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 399-1116 is a half-round silicon carbide toolroom finishing stick designed for precision deburring, honing, and surface finishing of hardened tool steels, carbide, and non-ferrous metals. Measuring 4 inches long by 0.375 inches wide, this medium-grade stick delivers consistent material removal in tight profiles and contoured areas where flat stones cannot reach. The half-round cross-section provides two distinct working surfaces in a single stick, allowing the technician to work both flat and curved workpiece geometries. Machinists, tool and die makers, and toolroom technicians are the primary users of this type of abrasive finishing stick.

This finishing stick is suited for toolroom and die shop environments where fine edge work, mold polishing, and surface blending are routine tasks. The silicon carbide abrasive cuts aggressively on non-ferrous metals, cast iron, ceramics, and hard tool steels, making it a practical choice for maintenance of cutting tools, punches, dies, and mold cavities. The medium grade is a general-purpose selection appropriate for initial stock removal before progressing to finer grades if a polished finish is required.

Key Features

• Half-round profile provides both a flat and a curved working surface in one stick
• Silicon carbide abrasive for effective cutting on hard metals, ceramics, and non-ferrous materials
• Medium grade suitable for general deburring and surface conditioning
• Compact 4-inch length allows use in confined spaces and detail work
• Black silicon carbide construction for consistent grain distribution and cut rate

Compatibility

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

Installation Notes

This abrasive stick is a hand-held finishing tool and requires no mechanical installation. Secure the workpiece properly before use and apply light, consistent pressure along the working surface. Use appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection and gloves when performing deburring or honing operations. Lubricate with honing oil or water-based cutting fluid as appropriate to the workpiece material to extend stick life and improve surface finish quality.
