What Is Brown Aluminum Oxide?

Brown aluminum oxide is a synthetic abrasive produced by melting bauxite raw material at high temperatures. Thanks to its sharp and angular grain structure, it creates a strong cutting effect on the surface, enabling the removal of rust, mill scale, and old coatings. Its high mechanical strength makes the product reusable and long-lasting.
