Taber® Abrading Wheels & Wearasers™

Elcometer Home Page

Taber® Abrading Wheels are available in five levels of abrasiveness to suit a wide range of material testing applications.

Wool felt or plain rubber wheels test delicate materials or the abrasiveness of materials such as dental powders. Wheels which feature abrasive particles in a resilient matrix of rubber or a hard matrix of vitrified clay are suitable for stiffer materials.

  • Calibrase® - a resilient wheel composed of rubber and aluminium oxide abrasive particles.
  • Calibrade® - a non-resilient wheel composed of vitrified clay and silicon carbide abrasive particles.
  • Wool Felt - contains no abrasive particles.
  • Plain Rubber - contains no abrasive particles unless used with sandpaper strips.
  • Tungsten Carbide - severe cutting and tearing action with helical teeth for use on resilient materials such as rubber, leather or floor coverings.
