Hyperion Materials & Technologies manufactures a wide range of Borazon™ cubic boron nitrides (CBN), including the following electroplated / single layer bond products.
Borazon™ CBN 700 (Density 3.48 g/cm3)
Borazon CBN 700 is gold in color and tough and blocky in shape with sharp edges. It has the highest fracture strength of any monocrystalline Borazon CBN product and provides longest life performance without increasing power consumption. Borazon CBN 700 is ideally suited for hardened tool steels, stainless steels, and nickel- and cobalt-based superalloys.
Borazon™ CBN 500 (Density 3.48 g/cm3)
Electroplated tools are the best candidates for this golden colored, tough, and blocky crystal. Borazon CBN 500 has high fracture strength. Aggressive, long-life performance is provided by this crystal in hardened tool steels, carbon and alloy steels, and nickel- and cobalt-based superalloys.
Borazon™ CBN 300 (Density 3.48 g/cm3)
Borazon CBN 300 is designed as a blocky, tough crystal for use in general purpose applications. While blocky in shape, it is more irregular than Borazon CBN 500 or Borazon CBN 700.
Borazon™ CBN 570 (Density 3.48 g/cm3)
Borazon CBN 570 is treated for electroplating applications and is well-suited for applications where large mesh sizes with high particle strength are required. This product is also effective in grinding aerospace components such as turbine blades, vanes, and seals.
