Typically, Green SiC that is used for wire sawing applications will be more tightly graded than the regular FEPA Standard. Wire sawing requires high purity and a low level of fines.
Green Silicon Carbide JIS800, JIS1000, JIS1200, and JIS1200 are often used. JIS800-JIS2000 are available. Please Contact Us with your technical specs for a custom quotation.
Lead Time: 3 Business Days to date of shipping due to ISO Quality Control paperwork that we must complete prior to shipping.
