“There are some polishing bits out there for the Dremel, but the only one I would consider anywhere NEAR triggers/sears/etc. would be a RUBBER bit. You use these in conjunction with quality polishing pastes to get a mirror-level shine.”
CRATEX abrasives that fit Dremel rotary tools are made in different shapes and sizes. Depending on your needs, you can choose between small wheels, points and cones, and with CRATEX online store you can purchase as many pieces as you want!
CRATEX mounted bits have been used by gunsmiths, bladesmiths and knifemakers , jewelers and lapidaries , and dental technicians for many decades. With various professions and applications in mind, we came up with various combo, introductory and test kits, so make sure you check these out as well in case you are not sure where to start.
CRATEX Wheels for Dremel
“These are the goods. If you need polishing wheels for your Dremel, these are without peer. The mandrel fits my Dremel perfectly and the wheels do as designed providing excellent results for polishing small metal areas and jewelry.”
CRATEX offers two types of wheels for various Dremel polishing and grinding: shaped and straight. Tapered edge wheels are extremely adaptable and therefore suitable for fine, precision work on delicate parts. Usual applications include polishing, cleaning and finishing.
Straight edge wheels can be used for different kinds of deburring, smoothing and polishing operations where complete control of metal removal is crucial. Usual applications include micro-deburring, polishing various surface defects such as scratches and fatigue lines. We recommend small straight-edge wheels for working on dies, molds, electronic parts and sensitive scientific devices, jewelry, instruments, plastic articles, control mechanisms, aerospace components and light castings.
Abrasive Mounted Point
There are three shapes of CRATEX points: cylinder, bulled and tapered. Precisely their shape makes them perfect tools for working on hard-to-reach surfaces and operations such as polishing dies, molds, light castings and patterns, for cleaning contact points and solder spots, damaskeening and micro-deburring.
“Those things are really useful, I use them for polishing everything that need to be smooth (except for body parts :P ): Chamber and feed ramp, breechface, mag lips etc...”
Abrasive Rotary Tool Cones
CRATEX cones are ideal for difficult smoothing, polishing and deburring operations and, like points, for work on hard-to-reach areas. Just some of the applications are on dies, molds and castings, stainless steel tanks, combustion chambers and ports, turbine blades, ball corners, flares, angles and grooves.
CRATEX Dremel Mandrels
What about mandrels, you ask? We got you covered here as well! CRATEX offers high-quality mandrels that were built to last! They come in packs of 10 and are designed to easily attach your rubber-bonded abrasive wheels, points and cones to your Dremel or other rotary tools.
Remember to go through the speed safety recommendations and get your mandrels order on your way today!
CRATEX Dressing Tools
Wheels, points and cones come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes, so they’ll be exactly what you need in 99% of the cases. However, we understand that occasionally the need for a special shape can arise, and such shape can easily be achieved by adapting a standard shape.
CRATEX abrasives can be easily shaped to special contours by using different CRATEX conventional abrasive dressing tools – rubber-bonded square or oblong sticks.
