Flexible Diamond Rubber Pads for Stone Polishing

ABRALUX Diamond Rubber Pads are designed for professional polishing of marble, terrazzo and natural stone. Unlike a conventional flat polishing pad, their flexible 18mm thick rubber construction allows the pad to follow slight variations and imperfections in the floor, maintaining better contact with the surface throughout the polishing process.

This flexibility makes ABRALUX Rubber Pads particularly useful when working on older, uneven or imperfect stone floors where a rigid pad may not maintain consistent contact. By adapting to the profile of the surface, the pad helps produce a more uniform and consistent polished finish.

18mm Flexible Rubber Construction

The 18mm thick rubber backing allows the pad to flex and adapt to the floor rather than working only across the highest points. This helps maintain more consistent contact across uneven surfaces and makes the pads an excellent choice for restoration work where the floor cannot, or does not need to, be completely flattened before polishing.

Impregnation Stratify Process

ABRALUX Diamond Rubber Pads are manufactured by Diafil using the Impregnation Stratify Process rather than a conventional spray production technique.

This specialised manufacturing process is designed to eliminate the unwanted orange peel effect, helping the pad produce a smoother, more consistent and uniform finish across the working surface.

Available Grits

• 400 Grit – Initial refinement and preparation for the polishing stages.
• 800 Grit – Progressive honing and surface refinement.
• 1800 Grit – Fine polishing and preparation for the final finishing stage.
• 3500 Grit – Final polishing for a highly refined finish.

Suitable Surfaces

• Marble
• Travertine
• Limestone
• Terrazzo

Why Use a Flexible Rubber Diamond Pad?

Not every stone or terrazzo floor is perfectly flat. On older or uneven surfaces, a conventional rigid pad may concentrate its polishing action on the highest areas of the floor. The flexible construction of the ABRALUX Diamond Rubber Pad allows it to follow slight variations in the surface, helping maintain contact across a greater area and produce a more consistent finish.

This makes the system particularly useful for restoration projects where preserving the existing character and profile of the floor is important while still achieving a high-quality polished appearance.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are ABRALUX Diamond Rubber Pads used for?

They are designed for polishing marble, Venetian floors, terrazzo and natural stone, particularly where the surface has slight variations or imperfections that benefit from a flexible polishing pad.

Why is the ABRALUX Rubber Pad 18mm thick?

The 18mm rubber construction provides flexibility, allowing the pad to adapt to variations in the floor and maintain more consistent surface contact during polishing.

Are ABRALUX Diamond Rubber Pads suitable for uneven floors?

Yes. This is one of their main advantages. The flexible rubber backing allows the pad to follow slightly uneven or imperfect surfaces, helping achieve a more uniform polish without requiring the pad to remain completely rigid.

What grits are available?

ABRALUX Diamond Rubber Pads are available in 400, 800, 1800 and 3500 grit, providing a progressive system from initial refinement through to the final polishing stages.

What is the Impregnation Stratify Process?

The Impregnation Stratify Process is Diafil’s specialised method for manufacturing ABRALUX pads. Unlike a traditional spray process, it is designed to create a more uniform working structure and eliminate the orange peel effect, resulting in a smoother and more consistent polished surface.

What is the difference between ABRALUX Diamond Pads and ABRALUX Diamond Rubber Pads?

The Diamond Rubber version features a flexible 18mm rubber construction specifically designed to adapt to slight variations in the floor. This makes it particularly useful for polishing uneven or imperfect stone and terrazzo surfaces where maintaining consistent contact is important.
