Fused Zirconia Alumina (ZA25 & ZA40)
Fused Zirconia Alumina is a premium abrasive material composed of aluminum oxide and zirconium oxide. It combines the hardness of alumina with the toughness of zirconia, delivering superior grinding performance and extended service life.
Available in two main grades — ZA25 (25% ZrO₂) and ZA40 (40% ZrO₂) — it is ideal for heavy-duty grinding, cutting and surface preparation of hard materials.
Main Applications
- Grinding wheels for steel and stainless steel
- Coated abrasives (sandpaper, sanding belts, discs)
- Blasting media for surface preparation
- Precision grinding and cutting operations
- Heavy-duty metalworking applications
- Surface finishing and deburring
Product Grades
ZA25: Lower zirconia content for versatile grinding applications
ZA40: Higher zirconia content for heavy-duty grinding operations
