Coated abrasives are inert products which do not create any risk
when handled or stored. When used on motorized sanding machines,
specific measures are required for operator protection. During
grinding operations 90% or more of dust particles come from the
material being ground and, for wet grinding, from aerosols generated
by the cooling fluid. |
