Simplifies repeat sharpening

The Diamond Wheel Extra Fine 1200 grit to suit T-8 250mm maintains its round and flat shape, providing consistent abrasive power and exceptional durability. This feature is especially beneficial for users who frequently sharpen the same tool, as it simplifies both jig setting and sharpening processes.

Get a completely flat bevel

Achieve a flat bevel with precision and ease using the Diamond Wheel Extra Fine 1200 grit. Sharpen your smaller tools, like knives, chisels, carving gouges, and v-tools, on the side or upper surface of the wheel for a consistently smooth and level edge. Avoid the slightly concave surface that can result from traditional sharpening methods.

To properly sharpen your diamond grinding wheels, we suggest using a jig specifically designed for your tool, in addition to the MB-102 Multi Base. These tools provide essential support and precision during the sharpening process.

Rust protection for increased service life

Prior to sharpening with diamond grinding wheels, always include 150 ml of ACC-150 Anti-Corrosion Concentrate in the water to prevent rusting. For every 250 ml (0.4 pints) of water used, add 10 ml (0.02 pints) of concentrate (~4%). Using water while sharpening with diamond grinding wheels is highly recommended as it extends the wheel's lifespan and results in a smoother sharpening surface. However, sharpening without water is also possible.
