Don’t get in a sticky situation

The adhesive left behind after the
removal of sheet vinyl and tiles,
carpet and old flooring systems has
always been a problem for flooring
contractors. If standard grinding
accessories are used, they
generate surface
heat which
makes the
adhesive soft
and sticky,
resulting in clogging and
frequent stops.

To solve this, The Preparation
Group has introduced a brand new
range of highly efficient
polycrystalline diamond (PCD) discs
and shoes that scrape rather than
grind, without generating surface
heat. The PCD’s cutting edges remain
clear with adhesive being
continuously rolled up and ejected for
easy disposal.

The new PCD discs consist of a
cup disc on to which fit
interchangeable outer PCD
(polycrystalline diamond)
rings. Highly effective,
this accessory not only
offers time savings but
also considerable cost savings and less
wastage, claims the company.
