MX Mounted points are used for:

MX Mounted points are cotton bonded abrasive points used in a range of industry for a range of uses – this is due to the fact that they cut and blend metal material but leave a much smother finish than other grinding points. Cool running, fast cutting, smoother chatter free operation and non-loading on brass, aluminium and are also excellent on stainless steel and Titanium. They allow more control when blending, using a carbide burr too much material can easily be removed, MX allows removal of material without changing part geometry.

MX abrasive points are used in Medical industry for blending, deburring hard steels and additive manufactured products. Tool and Die for polishing, cleaning and repairing tools. Fabrication popular for working on welds for one operation for cutting and finishing. Precision engineering (Automotive, Aerospace etc.) for deburring, chamfer, cleaning castings, blending machine lines and polishing.

MX mounted points have options of two of grade:

MCFLEX (Harder) has a harder bonding resulting in longer life and more cut. Excellent blending on stainless steel. This is excellent for edge breaking and Chamfering smoothly and chatter free.

GFX (Softer) is recommended for blending and polishing, as well as light stock removal. Excellent for runners, aluminium and stainless steel.

Supplied on a 3mm spindle. 1/8” and 3/32 (2.35mm) are also available, please contact us for this option.

What do you use my MX Grinding points in:

These specific points on a 3mm spindle are suited for use with a flexible shaft system, micromotor or air tool.

A tool with speed control would be recommended to get the best use from the points. Either they will not cut or run smoothly or they might wear too quickly. see our recommended speeds:

Maximum RPM
W145 105,000rpm
W154 70,000rpm
W163 60,000rpm
W176 45,000rpm
W177 34,000rpm
W185 34,000rpm

MX points are usually used by precision engineers, mould tool polishers, jewellers and watchmakers.

Other MX abrasive products:

We also sell MX wheels which are suitable to use on a polisher. These are popular in the watch making industry.

For Weld blending we also have a MX angle grinder dish which is perfect for polishing out welds.
