Grits

6#, 16#, 16/18#, 20/25#, 30#, 30/40#, 50/60#, 60/80#, 70/80#, 80/100#, 120/125#, 20/220#, 324#/400#

AGRESSIVENESS OF GRIND

Grit is used as a reference to describe the finishing qualities of the diamond.
The lower the number, the larger the piece of diamond (coarser grit).
The higher the number, the smaller the pieces of diamond (finer grit).

Speed OF GRIND

The fewer segments on a Diamond cup wheel the more faster & aggressive
the grind will be as there is more friction on each segment. For Example, a #60/80 shoe will be used for light grinding or polishing

CONCRETE HARDNESS

The Harder the concrete, the softer the bond required
