Zirconia Fused Alumina/Zirconium Aluminum Oxide Grain F24 F30 F36 F46 F60 F80
Zirconia Fused Alumina, also known as Zirconium Aluminum Oxide Grain, is produced by co-melting alumina and zirconia raw materials in electric arc furnaces. Available in FEPA grit sizes F24, F30, F36, F46, F60 and F80, this abrasive features a special eutectic microstructure with great toughness and prominent self-sharpening performance.
When subjected to grinding force, the grains fracture moderately to expose new sharp cutting edges, achieving high material removal rate and long service life. Coarser grades F24-F36 suit heavy stock removal, while medium grades F46-F80 are ideal for intermediate grinding and surface conditioning. It works excellent.

- ZA is primarily used for steel conditioning wheels, snagging wheels, large diameter cut-offs and other grinding applications that require high speed and pressure. It’s also is recommended for refractories that require a high resistance to environmental corrosion and a low coefficient of thermal expansion. Applications include slide gates, glass tank refractories, and other applications requiring resistance to molten slags.
