Norton outlines its RazorStar range

Superior grinding performance, lower operating costs and increased efficiency are just three of the claims that Norton is making for its RazorStar range of ceramic belts and fibre discs. 

According to Norton, RazorStar belts cut faster and remove more material, reducing machine time and energy consumption by up to 20% on stainless steel and 34% on carbon steel, compared to other ceramic-shaped grains.

This contributes to the belt’s durability and long life in high-pressure grinding applications, reducing belt waste by up to 57% on stainless steel and up to 74% on carbon steel. In the company’s trials, it says the cut rate of RazorStar fibre discs improved stock removal by up to 50% on carbon steel during bevelling applications using a low-powered angle grinder, compared to other ceramic-shaped grains. During trials with a 1900W high-powered angle grinder, stock removal improved by 93% and the cut-rate improved by 44% on carbon steel. Operators also reported the fibre disc being smoother and easier to use, providing a much more comfortable experience.

RazorStar products can be used on many materials, including stainless steel, Duplex and exotic alloys, carbon steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, high nickel superalloys, and titanium alloys.
