HYBRID BOND™ Diamond Products

Between METAL BOND and RESIN BOND. Designed to replace the conventional resin bond diamond products. You will find all the advantages of cutting speed and fine finish that you have come to expect in a resin bond, along with long life, consistency, aggressiveness, durability, and excellent performance on you look for in a metal bond.

SAVE UP TO 650%  - 1 HYBRID Bond Diamond product may last 6 to 10 of your conventional Resin Bond diamond products  put together. Thinner kerf and more precision diamond products are available in a HYBRID Bond. Start saving money today.

Some of the materials and applications HYBRID™ BOND Diamond Products have been successfully tested on:

Aluminum oxide (Al2O3) 95% - standard kiln furniture

Aluminum oxide (Al2O3) 99%+- high density, electronics; silicon wafer substrates

Aluminum nitride (AIN) – heat decks in computer fabrication

Aluminum titanium carbide (AlTiC) – for read write heads  

Silicon nitride (Si3N4) – structural ceramics (such as exhaust valves on diesel engines; down-hole apparatus on oil rigs; turbines seals, rocker arms in aerospace)

Sialon – High Al2O3 – structural ceramics (same as above)  

Silicon carbide (SiC) – substrates and kiln furniture in electronics industry  

CVD SiC – heat decks for processing wafers in wafer fabrication

Fused Silica (glass) – grinding telescope lenses; kiln furniture

Quartz – kiln furniture

Sapphire – defense domes; radar domes; watches’ infrared POS Scanners

Zirconia (ZrO2) – diesel engines; ca dies; cutlery

Boron Carbide (B4C) – armor for tanks, cars, bullet proof vests

Titanium diboride (TiB2) – armor plating for aircraft

Tungsten carbie (WC) 11% Co – rotary seals for down hole oil drilling; tools

HYBRIND BOND Diamond Products vs. Resin Bond Diamond Products

Longer Life - 1 HYBRID Bond Diamond product may last 6 to 10 of your conventional Resin Bond products put together. 

More Consistent Performance - HYBRID Bond Diamond Products are more durable than Resin Bond products. Designed to minimize wreckage, the HYBRID Bond will give you consistent results you can count on everyday.

Better Surface Finish - HYBRID Bond Diamond Products have been successfully implemented in "mission critical" applications. Depending on the material you are machining, RPM's, coolants, and other factors. HYBRID Bond can help you improve your current chipping and surface finish yields.

Universal Application - HYBRID Bond Diamond Products are the first universal diamond products you can find on the market. Designed for maximum performance, in machining materials with various degrees of hardness. HYBRID Bond products may be used in both resin bond and metal bond applications. Perfect for companies machining different materials every day.

Higher RPM's -  Thinner kerf and more precision diamond products are available in a HYBRID Bond. On most application, you will be able to use these products at higher RPM's without damaging the tool. Save money and time by getting the job done faster.

Minimum Dressing - A resin bond, is really tar in a solid form. And in many cases, must be constantly dressed. Constant dressing often results in blade loosing its roundness and becoming oval shaped. The HYBRID Bond is more solid and solves this problem by exposing each diamond in the area where its needed most. Unlike a Resin Bond, HYBRID Bond diamond products will not loose their shape or form.

No contamination - A resin bond must remain very fragile in order to expose new diamonds. For this reason, strong and high quality diamonds cannot be used in a resin bond. High quality diamonds are harder than a resin bond matrix, and would soon disintegrate the bond that keeps them in place. The diamonds that are used in a resin bond are poor to medium quality. Most of them disintegrate or fall out of the bond, before they have a chance of being used. The problem with this approach is these diamonds fall into the material being dicing, causing unwanted contamination.

Get the job done:

• faster 

• easier

• with more consistency

• SAVE MONEY!!!
