With this valve grinder you have the option to grind globe valves (model FL-B), gate valves and wedges (FL-C) or both (FL-BC). The valve grinder is easily set up for wedge grinding using the existing clamping system
All valve grinders are designed for operational compatibility. They can be run from bench-mountings and driven by pneumatic or electric powered motors. Equipment purchased initially for relatively small diameter ranges can be conveniently upgraded to deal with larger ranges at a later date. This unique degree of flexibility means that grinders can be readily adapted to suit a wide variety of customer needs.
Kemet grinding paper is tested, proved and perfectly fitted to suit your machine under the conditions it will be working in (from 40 grit to 3mic).
