Hi-Tech Diamond electroplated diamond discs provide a flat grinding surface for both rough and fine grinding on stones and glass. Top-grade diamond powder is nickel electroplated uniformly onto a 1mm-thick steel disc, resulting in the highest quality disc available on the market. These diamond discs have a long lifespan because they are made of steel and are well-suited for more heavy-duty grinding. Diamond discs are used on our All-U-Need and Slant Cabber lap machines, and can be used on all other lap machines that accept 1/2″ arbors.

6″ and 8″ diameter discs are available in a large variety of different diamond grits. All diamond discs are available with or without a 3M pressure-sensitive, high-tack adhesive backing on the backside. Simply peel off the adhesive backing and apply to a backing plate for a permanent application.

Purchasing notes: Max RPM is 4,000. Discs require a backing plate. We recommend purchasing disc bushings with diamond discs that are not permanently bound to a backing plate, such as the discs without adhesive backings, to prevent all possible vibration and off-centered alignment that may occur.

We need more info and tutorial videos .

Definitely feel as you should have more package options . I had a similar issue with a couple other comments I’ve seen. I was a beginner when i bought the slant cab and beat the 180 to hell not knowing i needed a 60-80 to really grind them down.
Also . No one REALLY explains the significant difference in what the smoothing pads do vs electroplated . I talked to the lovely women at Hi-Tech and they ended up suggesting (a year n a half later) that i switch to just electroplated for the type of rocks i was cutting and cabbing. I wish i would have known that or been told with my first purchase because now it’s getting expensive 😫 also should be a video explaining the difference between a slant cab and a cabking (now that Hi-Tech offers them on their website ) . I still don’t understand what type of “technology” the wheels on a cabking differs from a slant or flat lap . Being transparent as possible always helps a business grow

Electroplated diamond discs

These are very flat and very effective, we are using them on the quartz family and no problems doing those stones on a mast machine.

I have had mixed success with these discs. I am pretty sure it isn't how I use them. There are a few that have spots in them that leave deep scratches. If anybody knows how to remove these embedded off grit pieces I would love to see it.

Great addition to my tools

I ordered an 8” 100 grit Diamond disc to make shaping faster. Yesterday I cut a large green jade cab and used the 100 to shape it. It made the entire job go so much better. Love it!!!!
