Brownells Silicon Carbide Abrasive Compound 180 Grit is the ideal abrasive compound for “hard fitting” two pieces of steel, standing up to continued fitting even on hardened and heat-treated steel, with silicon carbide grit combined with a thick, long lasting lubricant that breaks down into smaller and smaller sharp-edged particles to keep cutting longer than aluminum oxide compounds. This professional-grade compound comes in a 4 fl. oz. (118 ml) container, making it perfect for gunsmiths and metalworkers tackling precision fitting, deburring, and surface preparation projects.
Designed for use on steel only, the compound should be removed with solvent after application. Whether you’re finishing receiver components, fitting custom parts, or preparing metal surfaces for final assembly, this 180 grit formula delivers the cutting performance needed for demanding gunsmithing and metal finishing work. The self-lubricating petroleum base ensures consistent results across multiple fitting cycles, making it an essential tool for any serious gunsmith’s workshop.
