ÅngströmLap® Aluminum Oxide Lapping Film Sheet - 6 x 6 inch 1µm (micron)

AO1T663N100

AngstromLap 1um Aluminum Oxide Lapping Film, 6x6" Sheet with 3mil Backing, package of 100 sheets.
ÅngströmLap Aluminum Oxide Lapping Film is recommended when diamond lapping film is not needed, like in many fiber optic multimode applications. Some aluminum oxides can even be used as the final polish. The 0.5μm and 0.3μm will produce return losses of -50 dB or better, but because they cut the glass at a much quicker rate than the ceramic, undercut may occur. Aluminum oxide 1μm lapping film is typically used as for polishing MM connectors.

The 6" x 6" film sheet is the standard size for the Nanometer MCP-24 Series Polishing Machines.
