Foredom Diamond Polishing Disc 10'' Dia. 80grit .5'' Ah

Description:

The Diamond Polishing Disc 10'' dia. 80Grit .5'' AH is a medium-grit polishing and shaping disc widely used in dental laboratories for precise intermediate contouring of restorations. Featuring an 80-grit diamond-coated surface, this disc offers moderate abrasion strength suitable for smoothing surfaces after coarse reduction, while maintaining enough cutting power for detailed adjustments. With its large 10-inch diameter, the disc provides ample working area, allowing dental technicians to shape multiple units or larger prosthetic structures with efficiency. Its .5-inch arbor hole supports stable mounting on standard polishing motors, ensuring smooth rotational stability and predictable abrasion during use. This 80-grit disc is ideal for zirconia crowns and bridges, ceramic veneers, full-contour lithium disilicate restorations, hybrid ceramics, and composite prosthetic components. It helps refine occlusal anatomy, adjust marginal contours, and smooth rough areas created during earlier grinding steps. The controlled abrasion prevents over-reduction, preserving critical anatomical details and supporting a natural restoration appearance. The uniform diamond particle distribution ensures even surface refinement and reduces the risk of scratch patterns or uneven removal. This makes the disc a valuable intermediate tool before transitioning to fine and ultra-fine polishing stages. By improving surface uniformity, the 80-grit disc enhances the effectiveness of subsequent polishing steps, contributing to long-lasting aesthetics, improved translucency, and reduced plaque accumulation. It is an essential component for any laboratory seeking controlled, accurate, and efficient restorative shaping.
