No compound required. EVEFLEX silicone pin polishers are ideal for jewellers, goldsmiths, watchmakers, glass engravers and ceramicists. Their slim cylinder profile reaches difficult areas and produces consistent results when you work through each grade.
Recommended speed: 10,000–15,000 RPM (do not exceed 30,000 RPM). Use with the dedicated EVE Pin Mandrel in 1mm or 3mm.
Applications: fine jewellery finishing, stone & glass detail work, and watchmaking surfaces such as Perlage. Will leave an excellent, controlled finish.
“The rubber/grit mini posts are very good and can be filed to a point to suit both my Cameo and intaglio carving on Whitby Jet, and on stones up to 5 Moh scale such as Turquoise.” — Hal Redvers-Jones, The Whitby Jet Heritage Centre
These cylinder shaped rubber abrasives are thin enough to polish areas with difficult access. They are made from solid silicone abrasive and are best used by working your way through the grades until you've achieved the required finish.
