Cubic Boron Nitride Superabrasives
Cubic Boron Nitride (cBN) is second in hardness only to diamond.
cBN exhibits a high abrasion resistance and thermal conductivity when compared to conventional abrasives such as Silicon Carbide and Aluminum Oxide.
The thermal integrity of cBN and its ability to maintain sharp cutting edges when machining ferrous materials make it the product of choice in advanced grinding systems.

WWSA Cubic Boron Nitride Product Types
 |
Black, medium strength, with an angular morphology and high thermal stability. The BMA’s angular morphology produces a free cutting action that reduces heat generation and power consumption while increasing grinding efficiency. |
 |
CBN-BMI Black, medium strength, with a blocky morphology and high thermal stability. The BMI’s blocky morphology provides a more controlled crystal fracture, allowing the tool to better maintain its form while generating smaller particles under impact. |
 |
Black, friable, with an irregular shaped morphology. The BMO’s semi blocky morphology produces controlled micro fracturing particles along with free cutting characteristics to enhance wheel life and surface finish. |
 |
CBN-AMA Dark brown, very high strength, with an angular morphology and very high thermal stability. The AMA’s tendency to macrofracture under impact loading, coupled with its very high thermal stability provides longer wheel life. |
 |
CBN-AMB Golden in color, very high strength, with a blocky morphology and very high thermal stability. The AMB’s micro-fracturing characteristics, very high thermal integrity and very high fracture strength produce an aggressive cutting action while retaining the crystal in the bond as long as possible. |

Nickel Coated 60%
All cBN products are available Nickel coated 60% by weight. The textured Nickel coating provides increased mechanical retention of the crystal in phenolic and polyimide resin bond systems. The coating also dissipates heat from the grinding zone thereby extending the life of the tool and increasing workpiece integrity.
