Grits formulated to respond in a controlled manner to the lappato process, generating a balanced contrast between polished and satin areas.
Technical response to surface machining
Its formulation controls hardness, internal structure, and surface melting, ensuring that the effect after lappato is uniform, stable, and repeatable in production.
Controlled response to abrasive
Designed to behave predictably during machining.
Balanced contrast
They create a visual difference between treated and untreated areas.
Optimized internal structure
Formulation adjusted to avoid irregularities after partial polishing.
Uniformity in series
They maintain stability of the effect in continuous production.
Final brightness control
They allow modulating the intensity of the finish after lappato.
Compatibility with base coat
Stable integration before and after the mechanical process.
Granulometric adjustment
Selection according to desired contrast level.
Online adaptation
Technical adjustment according to machinery and customer parameters.
Subtle effect with smooth transition between areas.
Greater visual contrast and surface depth.
Ideal for surfaces where contrast is key.
Specific development according to abrasives and line parameters.
It is formulated to respond in a controlled manner to partial surface machining.
By adjusting the formulation, hardness, and applied particle size.
Yes. That's why we adjust the grit according to abrasives and line parameters.
Both. The application adapts to the client's production system.
Everything you need to know about ceramic grits for lapping
Compact, porosity-free surfaces for a perfect polish.
Ceramic grits for lapping are high technical density vitreous formulations specifically developed to withstand demanding mechanical polishing and grinding processes after firing. Their chemical design guarantees extraordinarily compact melting, completely eliminating internal bubbles and microporosity. This characteristic is critical in ceramic production, as any gas trapped during firing would become a visible defect (pore or pinhole) when machining the tile surface.
In the manufacture of high value-added porcelain tiles, the use of these grits allows for semi-polished (lapped) or full mirror finishes with unparalleled optical depth. At Kerafrit, we create solutions that offer the perfect balance between hardness and machinability, optimizing the wear of abrasive wheels on the line and guaranteeing spectacular shine, completely resistant to chemical attack and staining.
