Dan Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 can someone explain why diamond grinding wheels are so much more expensive then diamond laps? i can buy a 8 inch wheel for 100 dollars but a 8 inch lap is around 20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcel beaudry Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 Hello Dan First a lap is just a simple plate of steel plated with diamond . As for a grinding wheel it as to be machined for the precision needed and contain much more material to make Marcel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted January 31, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 dont they both have to be machined or is a lap literly just a flat disc with a hole punched in the center and diamond applied? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
