INTRODUCTION TO BEARTEX
NONWOVEN PRODUCTS
USED WET OR DRY, BEARTEX PRODUCTS OFFER THE FOLLOWING ADVANTAGES:
These advantages make Beartex products an excellent alternative to bristle brushes, set-up wheels,
greaseless compounds, and steel wool. Operators quickly learn the techniques of using Beartex
products to produce eye catching finishes.
• A predictably consistent, uniform finish
• Minimum smearing and discolouration of the
work-piece as heat is dissipated through the open
mesh of the product
• Increased productivity through savings in time
• Ability to automate operations
• Reduced operator training
• Less maintenance required
• Greater safety than other methods
• Conformability to irregular surfaces
Beartex consists of a backing in “non-woven” nylon fibers evenly impregnated with abrasive granules
through the binding action of synthetic resins. This structure forms a “three-dimensional” abrasive
material. Since this product was created as a finishing tool for operations where no material need
be removed, it is particularly suitable for buffing-up purposes or to reduce the roughness of a surface:
BearTex begins to act when other abrasive tools have terminated their work. In all those situations
where a buffing, cleaning or finishing operation is required, the BearTex product is decidedly a must.
