Overview:
This document provides detailed product specifications and ordering information for BORIDE Engineered Abrasives' Water-Based and Oil-Based Diamond Compounds. These compounds are used primarily in mold making and precision abrasive applications.

1. Product Types and Usage

The document distinguishes between two main types of diamond compounds:

• Water-Based Diamond Compounds: Suitable for applications requiring water as a carrier medium.
• Oil-Based Diamond Compounds: Designed for use where oil-based carriers are preferred.

Both types include a range of grades and micron sizes tailored for different polishing and grinding needs.

2. Grade and Micron Size Classification

Diamond compounds are categorized by grade, micron size range, and color coding for easy identification. The grades range from coarse to very fine, with micron sizes spanning from 0-1/4 microns up to 100-150 microns. Each grade is associated with a specific color:

• 100 (100-150 microns) - Black
• 170 (80-100 microns) - Dark Gray
• 230 (54-80 microns) - Purple
• 45 (36-54 microns) - Brown
• 30 (22-36 microns) - Red
• 20 (15-25 microns) - Light Blue
• 15 (12-22 microns) - Blue
• 9 (8-12 microns) - Green
• 6 (4-8 microns) - Orange
• 4 (2-6 microns) - Pink
• 3 (2-4 microns) - Yellow
• 2 (1-3 microns) - Lavender
• 1 (0-2 microns) - White
• 1/2 (0-1 micron) - Light Gray
• 1/4 (0-1/2 micron) - Gray
• 1/10 (0-1/4 micron) - Ivory

3. Packaging and Weight Options

Diamond compounds are available in syringes of various sizes to accommodate different usage volumes and application needs:

• 2 gram syringe
• 5 gram syringe
• 18 gram syringe

Each syringe size is offered in multiple viscosity options: Medium, Heavy, Extra Heavy, Super Heavy, and Super. Pricing varies accordingly.

4. Product Codes and Pricing

Each grade, micron size, color, and syringe size combination has a unique product code for ordering. Prices are listed in USD and vary by compound weight and viscosity. For example, a 2 gram syringe of 100 micron black water-based compound is priced at $13.00, while an 18 gram syringe of the same grade and type is $21.00.

5. DIAMAX Thinner

Both water-based and oil-based compounds can be thinned using DIAMAX Thinner, which serves to:

• Thin the slurry
• Extend the diamond compound
• Reduce gumming during application

DIAMAX Thinner is available in multiple bottle sizes (2 oz, 4 oz, 16 oz) and an empty 2 oz finger spray bottle for fine mist application. Pricing is provided for each size.

6. Additional Notes and Recommendations

• Other syringe sizes are available upon request.
• Pricing is subject to change without notice.
• Color coding facilitates quick identification of micron size and grade.
• Use of DIAMAX Thinner is recommended to optimize compound performance and application.

7. Summary Table Insights

The extensive tables list product codes, prices, and packaging options for each grade and micron size. Key takeaways include:

• Consistent pricing structure across water-based and oil-based compounds with slight variations.
• Availability of multiple viscosity grades to suit different polishing requirements.
• Comprehensive micron size coverage from ultra-fine to coarse abrasives.

This structured product offering supports a wide range of industrial polishing and finishing applications, ensuring users can select the appropriate compound based on particle size, carrier type, and application volume.
