Product Overview
CBN-B50 is a strong, blocky monocrystalline CBN grit developed for vitrified and metal-bond grinding tools requiring stable grain geometry and good wear resistance. Compared with more friable black CBN grades, its stronger crystal structure and lower friability help maintain abrasive integrity under sustained grinding loads, while retaining sufficient cutting ability for hardened steels and other ferrous materials.
