3M Lapping Film 865X


Tech Optics is now stocking the new final polishing film from 3M. The 3M Lapping Film 865X provides an alternative to the Lapping Film 863XW. The main feature of the 865X film is that it has a longer working life than other final polish films, making significant cost savings to the consumables in the polishing process. Tests have shown that 8 complete cycles can be completed on the Domaille polishing machine without degradation of optical properties or end face geometry.
