Magnetic Plate GHX-GRP-CON-GRD-DIA-011

Product Short Description The GHX-GRP-CON-GRD-DIA-011 Magnetic Plate is a high-strength, precision-machined magnetic base platen that securely attaches to the grinder/polisher chassis and provides instant, rock-solid magnetic holding for all G-Hexa conversion plates (AD-PSA, AD-PB, AD-Foil). Designed for laboratories that frequently change abrasive types or grit sequences, it enables tool-free, seconds-fast swapping of PSA, plain-back, or foil-based consumables while maintaining perfect flatness, balance, and alignment at high speeds. Available in 200 mm, 250 mm, and 300 mm diameters, this magnetic plate eliminates clamping rings, reduces setup time, protects the original platen, and maximizes workflow efficiency in high-throughput metallographic and materials preparation environments.

Key Applications & Uses

• Rapid, tool-free exchange of abrasive discs and polishing cloths in multi-step metallographic preparation workflows
• High-throughput grinding and polishing requiring frequent grit or abrasive type changes (coarse → fine → polish)
• Secure mounting of PSA-backed papers, plain-back SiC discs, diamond grinding foils, and ultra-thin diamond films
• Protection of expensive grinder original platens from wear, adhesive residue, and mechanical damage
• Batch sample preparation in automotive, aerospace, steel, electronics, and materials testing quality control labs
• Supporting university research, failure analysis, and industrial facilities aiming to minimize downtime and maximize preparation efficiency

Why Choose from G-Hexa?

• Instant Consumable Swapping — Powerful neodymium magnetic hold allows conversion plates to snap on/off in seconds — no tools, no clamping rings, no wasted time.
• Perfect Flatness & Balance — Precision-ground surface ensures <0.01 mm flatness and vibration-free performance at high speeds — critical for reproducible, high-quality surfaces.
• Platen Protection — Acts as a sacrificial interface, preventing adhesive residue, scratches, and wear on your grinder’s original platen — extends equipment life significantly.
• Universal Compatibility — Works seamlessly with all G-Hexa AD-PSA, AD-PB, and AD-Foil conversion plates and fits standard 200/250/300 mm grinder/polisher chassis.
• Durable & Low-Maintenance — Corrosion-resistant coating and simple water-wipe cleaning keep the plate in top condition for years of daily use.
• G-Hexa Ecosystem Advantage — Designed as the core component of the G-Hexa quick-change abrasive system; fast delivery across India, competitive pricing, and expert support for researchers, universities, pharma, biotech, and industrial labs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: What is the main purpose of the Magnetic Plate? A: It serves as a strong magnetic base that securely holds G-Hexa conversion plates (AD-PSA, AD-PB, AD-Foil), allowing instant, tool-free swapping of abrasive discs and polishing cloths without residue or damage to the grinder’s original platen.

Q: Do I still need clamping rings with this plate? A: No — the powerful magnetic force provides uniform, secure holding for all compatible conversion plates — clamping rings are completely eliminated.

Q: Which consumables work with the Magnetic Plate? A: It is designed exclusively for G-Hexa conversion plates: AD-PSA (for PSA-backed discs), AD-PB (for plain-back discs), and AD-Foil (for foil-based abrasives). These plates then hold your actual abrasive media.

Q: How strong is the magnetic hold? A: Extremely strong — high-performance neodymium magnets ensure conversion plates stay firmly in place even under high-speed rotation, heavy load, and wet grinding conditions.

Q: Can I use the Magnetic Plate on automatic preparation systems? A: Yes — it mounts like any standard platen and maintains perfect balance and flatness under central or individual force loading at high speeds.

Q: How do I clean the Magnetic Plate? A: Simply rinse with water or wipe with a damp cloth to remove any abrasive debris — no solvents or scraping required. The surface refreshes instantly.

Q: Does it require any special installation? A: No — it replaces your grinder’s standard platen using the same mounting method (magnetic if supported, or clamp). No tools or adapters are needed.
