Electroplated diamond laps

I purchased a 3000 grit flat lap during the July 4th sale. Instead of buying the one with an arbor hole I mistakenly bought the one with a mounting screw but they were very helpful in exchanging it for the correct one. I primarily use a flat lap for grinding gravers and other tools and was missing a higher grit lap - hopefully this will fill the gap. I have used it a few times and it works well. I am not sure if I have to dress it with a stone before using it.. thanks.

I mostly use the Hi-Tech all in one to flatten slabs for display so the plates get MUCH more use that doing cabs. As a result the 60 grit, which I almost always use before talking the slabs to the cab king to finish. For my purpose I wish they made a 45 grit with backing. I have bought for thin 45 grit but they become unbalanced quickly and destroy the motor. Just recently with some patience I can balance a thin 45 grit on one of their plates with backing and make it balance. Anyway the 60 and other grits work quite well but since I flatten slabs they wear out much quicker. In the end I love their machines as part of my lapidary shop.

Very good quality, good value/reasonable price. I purchased three additional diamond laps (100, 360, 600) for my 8 inch Hi-Tech lap and I am very satisfied with the quality of this product.

Good product and service

This is my second 80 grit lap. First one finally started wearing out. For taking off material I think it works best, really gets with the program!
