MAGNETIC NOVA LAPS FOR LAPPING

 

Shown above is Magnetic Nova being removed from an 18RLD lap machine.

 

Our Magnetic Nova Laps give you the fast polishing performance of Novas combined with the convenience of an easy on–off magnetic lap. They attach right onto most flat laps and are easily removed.

Magnetic Nova Laps have a 1⁄16" thick backing of solid rubber containing magnetized iron particles so the laps will adhere to a cast iron, steel or nickel plated lap. The rubber is coated with a thick layer of our special Nova resin-bond diamond formula for fast action and lasting service. The surface of the Magnetic Nova is made with a grid pattern for better performance.

You can use the Magnetic Novas on your present flat lap set-up in most cases, but they will not work on aluminum or diamond coated discs. If your lap set-up will accommodate an attachment using a 1⁄4"-20 bolt (such as on the Genie, Titan and Pixie), then you can use one of the special back plates listed on the opposite page. These steel faced back plates along with the Magnetic Novas will give you a non-interrupted polishing surface for maximum efficiency.

Our recommended general purpose grit sequence for sanding and polishing most flats, especially on our Diamond RLD machines (see page 20) is 60, 280, 600 and 1200 grits, followed by our super Premium Cerium Oxide Polish on a felt pad. We also recommend the use of a 60 grit Diamond Plated Disc to precede the 60 grit Magnetic Nova for those slab surfaces with deep saw marks or other features requiring grinding preparation. Other grit sequences can be used with excellent results depending on the materials to be polished.

Magnetic Novas come in a variety of grits and sizes to accommodate most needs. We also make a 24" diameter Magnetic Nova by SPECIAL ORDER.

NOTE: Magnetic Nova for our RLD Lap machines require arbor holes a 5/8" arbor hole and the  18RLD requires a 1" arbor hole.

HOW TO ORDER ARBOR HOLES

Standard Magnetic Novas no longer come with arbor holes unless requested. ALL ARBOR HOLES ARE SPECIAL ORDER, BUT THERE IS NO ADDITIONAL CHARGE FOR THIS SERVICE. Allow 2-3 days extra.

For 1⁄2" arbor hole, add -4 to the order number.

For 5⁄8" arbor hole, add -5 to the order number.

For 1" arbor hole, add -8 to the order number.
