Saint-Gobain has launched a new Norton Bear-Tex corundum surface treatment material that offers exceptional durability and high-performance characteristics. This innovative abrasive solution combines premium-quality corundum grains with nylon gauze, using advanced clean resin bonding technology to ensure strong adhesion to high-strength, low-stretch polyester substrates. The result is a smooth, contamination-free grinding and polishing process ideal for demanding industrial applications.
Designed specifically for abrasive belt systems, the new product delivers excellent machine strength while requiring minimal tensile resistance from the belt itself. Its long-lasting performance makes it particularly suitable for aerospace, metal fabrication, and maintenance sectors where precision and reliability are crucial. It excels in tasks such as material blending, deburring, and surface finishing, offering consistent material removal and reduced wear over time.
Paul Krupa, Senior Product Manager at Saint-Gobain, stated, “This new surface treatment material is a game-changer for the Norton Bear-Tex line. By integrating clean resin bonding with more durable materials, we’ve created a product that outperforms traditional abrasives in both efficiency and finish quality.â€
The corundum-based abrasives provide uniform cutting rates and minimize particle shedding due to the fabric’s low tensile properties. The clean resin technology ensures a finer, stain-free finish across a wide range of materials. Additionally, it generates controlled heat during use, enhancing performance without compromising surface integrity.
Norton Bear-Tex products come in various grits—coarse, medium, fine, or ultra-fine—and are especially popular for stents and portable belts. They include 50-inch wide belts used in large-scale production, as well as sanding solutions for pump sleeves. A new fast-prepared corundum belt with cotton and linen base has also been introduced, complementing existing cotton-based production lines seamlessly.
Overall, this new offering has received positive feedback from industry professionals, highlighting its versatility, performance, and ease of integration into existing workflows. Whether you're working on complex aerospace components or heavy-duty metal parts, Norton Bear-Tex provides the reliability and quality needed for top-tier results.
