Vibratory Finishing Compounds

Vibratory finishing compounds are specialized chemical formulations designed to be used in vibratory finishing processes.

These compounds are added to the media (such as ceramic, plastic, or metal pellets) inside a vibratory tumbler or bowl to enhance the surface finishing of metal parts.

The compounds typically contain abrasives, lubricants, and other additives that work together to remove burrs, smooth surfaces, and impart a desired aesthetic or functional finish to the workpieces.

• Deburring Compounds: Designed for removing burrs from metal, plastic, or other materials. Deburring helps smooth out sharp edges, rendering the product safer and more aesthetically pleasing.
• Polishing Compounds: Aimed at achieving a high-gloss finish, these are ideal for products that require a mirror-like surface.
• Buffing Compounds: Buffing compounds help achieve a soft shine, especially on materials like wood or stone.
• Cleaning Compounds: These remove oils, grease, and other soils from the surface, ensuring a clean finish.

Vibratory Finishing Compounds provide various benefits to your vibratory finishing process, they are:

• Cleaning of dirty surfaces and brightening of various metals
• Suspension of fines within the process preventing them from becoming re-deposited onto the media or into the part surfaces.
• Create lubricity and cushioning during the process
• Protection of parts from corrosion and oxidation

Below is a list of some of our standard Vibratory Compounds. Please contact us to order or for more information.

Liquid compounds are the foundation of the modern surface finishing process. Thanks to their ability to remove contaminants such as metal and/or media fines from the process, they keep the components and the media clean and ensure a repeatable high quality mass finishing process.

Choose the right product for your application. This will guarantee that your solution is both economical and environmentally-friendly.

Recirculation compounds are formulated to provide a consistent process quality for every application and ensure long service intervals for the process water.

These compounds are best for use in closed loop water recycling systems but can also be used in flow through processes.

The grinding process is particularly economical with grinding pastes in non-circulated processes. We have also have easy-to-use grinding pastes in powder form that are suitable for wastewater circulation.

The polishing process refines, super finishes and produces mirror-bright, high polish surfaces. Polishing pastes are designed to produce the required surface finish, are environmentally-friendly and economical to utilize. In addition to pastes, we have also powdered products for use with re-circulation systems.

• Consider the material composition of the parts you need to finish
• Determine the specific surface finish you require (deburring, descaling, brightening, polishing, etc.)
• Evaluate any time constraints or processing speed needs for your operation. Identify any special finishing requirements, such as maintaining tight tolerances or achieving a specific aesthetic
• Consult with an experienced vibratory finishing supplier to help select the optimal compound formulation for your application
• The right compound choice can optimize results and improve productivity in your vibratory finishing process
