Effective deburring and maintenance

The CW-220 is designed to remove burrs rapidly after sharpening, giving you a sharp and even edge. The wheel can also be used to maintain tools between sharpenings when you simply want to restore the edge without grinding a new bevel. The built-in polishing makes the process both faster and simpler than traditional honing with paste.

Clean and practical to use

The integrated polishing compound in the composite material means you do not need to apply any honing paste. This provides a cleaner and more pleasant experience – both for the user and the working area. The CW-220 is therefore particularly well suited to workshops or environments where avoiding mess and residue from abrasives is important.

Option for wet honing

For a softer and more controlled honing action, you can dampen the CW-220 with a little water. Use a sponge or cloth with ordinary tap water and hold it lightly against the wheel while the machine is running. This gives a smoother feel and reduces any aggressiveness during polishing.

Materials and construction

The honing wheel is made from composite material with a galvanised steel core and ABS plastic. The robust construction ensures a long service life and consistent results over time. The composite material serves as a vegan alternative to classic leather honing wheels, while delivering the same high level of polishing performance.
