Alpha Twincur GEM-V Polishing Wheel – 6 in., 3000 Grit, Hook & Loop
The Alpha Twincur GEM-V Polishing Wheel is a 6 in. hook-and-loop polishing wheel in 3000 grit for straight and beveled edge polishing. In Alpha's 50 to 3000 grit sequence, 3000 grit is the final polishing grit in the sequence. Alpha lists the line for granite, engineered stone and quartz surfaces, marble, limestone, concrete, crystallized glass and porcelain slabs, and states that Cosentino recommends it as a Dekton polishing system.
This is the hook-and-loop version. If your machine takes Snail Lock tooling directly, the Alpha Twincur GEM Polishing Wheel is the same line in a Snail Lock attachment. To run these hook-and-loop wheels on a Snail Lock machine, use the Alpha Twincur GEM-V Hook & Loop Snail Lock Adapter, 6 in.
