ÅngströmLap^® Aluminum Oxide Lapping Film Disc - 8 inch 5µm (micron), Hole

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 5um lapping film is typically used as for polishing MM connectors.

The 8" is the standard size for the Ultra Tec Ultrapol 1200, some Buelher polishing machine, as well as others.
