01 / MEET THE MATERIAL

Natural origins.
Industrial
purpose.

Meet the mineral behind the abrasive.

Emery is a dark, naturally occurring rock containing corundum and iron-bearing minerals. Its mineral composition makes it a material of interest for abrasion and surface treatment.

An effective abrasive starts with the right material. Particle size, mineral composition and the demands of your process all play a part. Work with AGL Mining to define what your application needs.

What is natural Emery?

Emery is a naturally occurring, dark abrasive rock containing corundum and associated iron-bearing minerals. Its composition varies, so a specific grade should be evaluated using its own technical data.

Is Emery a finished grinding product?

This page introduces Emery as a mineral raw material. Abrasive papers, grinding wheels and finished surface systems are separate products made using selected materials and formulations.

How do I choose the right particle size?

Share the intended application, required mesh or micron range, sieve standard and target result. These details help the team discuss material options and the relevant evaluation steps.

Can I discuss samples and packaging?

Yes. Contact AGL with your application, evaluation quantity, expected order volume and delivery destination to discuss current sample and packaging options.

Where can I get technical and safety documents?

The downloadable Product Overview introduces the material. Ask AGL for the relevant grade-specific TDS and official SDS for technical evaluation and handling information.
