Rollers, Buffs and Brushes

Sisal Web

Sisal fibres are very effective when used to make
thread, which in turn is woven to sisal web.
The LIPPERT-UNIPOL range includes
4 different types of sisal web:                                                      

• 28       open structure        1100(g/m2)
• 81       dense structure      1950(g/m2)
• 82       dense structure      1000(g/m2)
• 82B    dense structure      1145(g/m2)

Sisal web is frequently combined with cotton cloth
101B to obtain a stable sandwich effect, as required
for certain buffs.

Sisal Buffs are often impregnated to provide greater cut, more stability, longer service life and improved composition adhesion.

Sisal buffs are used mainly for aggressive buffing. Hard, impregnated sisal buffs can be an economic alternative to sanding belts, with the added advantage that the surface is simultaneously semi-polished.

If the buffs are sorted according to hardness, the following sequence results:
• Sisal EK buffs (stitched)
• Sisal/cloth MEK buffs
• Sisal/cloth WR buffs
• Sisal/cloth folded EK buffs

Sisal Cord

Sisal cord is manufactured from sisal thread.
The LIPPERT-UNIPOL range includes 3 types of cord:

• 31 single thread, twisted
• 32 double thread, twisted
• 48 eight threads, braided.

Sisal cord no. 48 is the most common type and this is generally impregnated, as are types 31 and 32 - alternatives for brushes in smaller diameters.

The application of sisal cord buffs and brushes is similar to the sisal web products. Sisal cord buffs are particularly suitable for finishing contoured parts and for cutlery processing, due to their greater flexibility in comparison to sisal web.
