    Silicon Carbide Lapping Film Product Matrix

    As a more aggressive material effective for rough grinding, Silicon Carbide Lapping Film is often recommended over aluminum oxide for the first step of the fiber optic polishing process, which involves epoxy and glass fiber removal. It is effective on both single-fiber ceramic ferrules and MT ferrules but is not commonly used for final polishing steps.

    Fiber Optic Center offers both ÅngströmLap® and 3M™ silicon carbide films, listed below for easy comparison based on technical specifications to help you choose the right film for your polishing equipment and application.
