ALPHA FELT WHEELS
The Alpha Felt Wheel is a very popular
material for the final buff process in stone
fabrication. Alpha Felt Wheels are Velcro™
backed buffing wheels designed for use with
polishing powders, polishing pastes, and
polishing bars to bring out a deep glossy finish
on marble and delicate granite edges such as
ogees & bullnoses. Marble fabricators love the
luster they obtain. Monumentalists like the
durability of the Alpha Felt Wheel. Tile
contractors love the glossy finish they can
present to their customers. We designed Alpha
Felt Wheels specifically to hold up to the acidic contents of most polishing compounds and the heat that
is typically generated during the final polishing process. Alpha Felt Wheels are ¼ inch thick and have the
perfect degree of hardness verses softness. These factors combined with the easy use of the Velcro™
backing, make Alpha Felt Wheels the best available final polishing disc for marble.
ALPHA PVA QUICK CHANGE STYLE
“Marble Edge Polishing System”
Alpha PVA Quick Change System is a low
speed version of the original “Makita” style PVA
and is designed for use on an aluminum snail-lock
backer plate specifically developed for low speed
polishing tools such as the AEP-458 and the AIR-
658. Alpha PVA Quick Change will work on all
of the same applications that the “Makita” style PVA
will, with the same excellence and quality. Marble
shops, tile installers or anyone else that already
has access to a low speed-polishing tool will find
that the Alpha PVA Quick Change system
will speed up their productivity. The aluminum
backer plate is attached to the polishing tool and
each of the pads has a snail lock adapter. The
adapter simply fits into place and locks on by a
twisting motion. To remove the pads simply untwist
and remove, then replace with the next grit. This “
Quick Change” process saves time, increases
productivity and Alpha PVA Quick Change is
an exclusive, revolutionary product that will enhance any marble crafter’s shop.
