Metallographic polishing cloth is one of the commonly used consumables in metallographic laboratories, and metallographic engineers are particularly familiar with nylon, non-woven fabric, silk, wool And other materials; On the surface, there may be plush, short plush, long plush, perforated, and so on. The reason why there are so many types of metallographic polishing cloth is corresponding to its different applications. To distinguish the quality of a metallographic polishing cloth, in addition to using the eyes and hands, it can also be verified through experiments. There are various types and models of metallographic polishing cloths that can be used for pulse detection. In order to show the true and clear details of QMAXIS metallographic polishing cloths to users who have not yet used them, each one is photographed with a microscope to see how clear it is!


The metallographic polishing cloth of QMAXIS is divided into three categories: coarse polishing, medium polishing, and fine polishing. Let's take a look at how clear it is one by one!




Coarse polishing metallographic polishing cloth


There are three types of materials, as follows:


PlanCloth metallographic polishing cloth, nylon non-woven fabric, lint free


PerfoCloth metallographic polishing cloth, hard synthetic non-woven fabric with holes


NylonCloth metallographic polishing cloth, nylon fabric, lint free

PlanCloth 金相抛光布

Under a microscope, the PlanCloth metallographic polishing cloth is made of nylon non-woven fabric. The polishing cloth is woven with fine and uniform weft threads, without defects or fluff, and the texture is clearly visible. It is used for rough polishing of iron base, Thermal spraying coating and hard materials, and is matched with 15µ M-3µ M's diamond polishing fluid is used.

PerfoCloth 金相抛光布

Under a microscope, the PerfoCloth metallographic polishing cloth is a hard synthetic fiber non-woven fabric with uniform and dense material, filled with neatly arranged small holes, and its texture is clearly visible. It is used for rough polishing of materials such as ceramics, carbides, petrography, hard alloys, glass, and metals, combined with 9µ Use diamond polishing fluid of m and below.

NylonCloth 金相抛光布

Under a microscope, NylonCloth metallographic polishing cloth is seen. This twill woven nylon fabric is fine and uniform, without any defects, without velvet, and has a clear and visible texture. It is used for rough polishing of materials such as iron-based, sintered carbide, and cast iron, combined with 15µ M-3µ M's diamond polishing fluid is used.

Medium polishing metallographic polishing cloth

There are three types of materials, as follows:

DuraCloth metallographic polishing cloth, hard synthetic compressed non-woven fabric, lint free

SatinCloth metallographic polishing cloth, synthetic and natural silk, lint free

SilkCloth metallographic polishing cloth, pure silk, lint free

DuraCloth 金相抛光布

Under a microscope, DuraCloth metallographic polishing cloth is seen. This hard synthetic compressed non-woven fabric has a very flat surface, irregular texture but is very uniform, fluffy free, and the texture is clearly visible. It is used for medium polishing of Ferrous, nonferrous metal, electronic packaging, printed circuit board, Thermal spraying coating, cast iron, ceramics, minerals, composite materials, plastics and other materials, with 9µ Use diamond polishing fluid of m and below.

SatinCloth 金相抛光布

Under a microscope, SatinCloth metallographic polishing cloth is a material woven from synthetic and real silk, with a fine, uniform, fluffy free texture that is clearly visible. It is used for medium polishing of materials such as metals, petrography, ceramics, and coatings, combined with 3µ Use diamond polishing fluid of m and below.

SilkCloth 金相抛光布

Under a microscope, the SilkCloth metallographic polishing cloth is a material tightly woven from pure silk, with a heavy weight silk texture, without velvet, and a clear and visible texture. It is used for medium polishing of materials such as metals, microelectronics, coatings, and rocks, combined with 9µ M-3µ Use diamond polishing fluid and alumina polishing fluid. Of course, this polishing cloth is very suitable for use with polishing paste and liquid polishing wax, resulting in better results.

Fine polishing metallographic polishing cloth


There are four types of materials, as follows:


MicroMet metallographic polishing cloth, woven with artificial fiber and cotton backing, short velvet


VelCloth metallographic polishing cloth, soft artificial velvet, short velvet


FlocCloth metallographic polishing cloth, soft fabric, plush


ChemoCloth metallographic polishing cloth, chemically resistant synthetic fabric, lint free

MicroMet 金相抛光布

Under a microscope, MicroMet metallographic polishing cloth is a synthetic fabric woven from artificial fibers and cotton backing. The base has a certain hardness, the surface is soft and dense, and the texture is clear and visible. It can be used for fine polishing of all materials, combined with 1µ Diamond polishing fluid and alumina polishing fluid of m and below are used.

VelCloth 金相抛光布

Under a microscope, VelCloth metallographic polishing cloth is made of soft artificial velvet material, which is soft, dense, short, and has a clear and visible texture. It is used for fine polishing of soft metal and electronic packaging materials, combined with 1µ Diamond polishing fluid, alumina polishing fluid, and silicon oxide polishing fluid of m and below are used.

FlocCloth 金相抛光布

Under a microscope, FlocCloth metallographic polishing cloth is made of soft plush fabric, which is very fine, soft, and has a clear and visible texture. It is used for fine polishing of materials such as metals and sintered carbides, combined with 3µ Diamond polishing fluid and alumina polishing fluid of m and below are used. If used in conjunction with aluminum oxide polishing powder, it can be used for fine polishing of all materials. In addition, this polishing cloth is very suitable for manual polishing and fine polishing of unmounted specimens.

ChemoCloth 金相抛光布

Under a microscope, ChemoCloth metallographic polishing cloth is made of chemically resistant synthetic fabric. The surface is very fine, with a seemingly fluffy texture. In fact, it is a small protrusion densely distributed on the surface of the fabric, which is actually lint free and has a clear and visible texture. It is used for fine polishing of materials such as titanium alloys, stainless steel, lead/tin solder, electronic packaging, soft non-ferrous metals, and plastics, combined with 1µ Diamond polishing fluid, alumina polishing fluid, and silicon oxide polishing fluid of m and below are used.

The above is the morphology of the QMAXIS metallographic polishing cloth under the microscope. When viewed under the microscope, the metallographic polishing cloth is so clear! Being able to perceive the good quality of the product from the inside out. No matter what material you prepare for the sample or which polishing process you use, there is always an option that can meet your technical needs. Both manual and automatic polishing can be used, without picking machines or people. Contact a pulse detection engineer to help you select the type and provide you with a quick sample preparation solution. Hurry up and contact us.
