"EC" Surface Finish

Surface Finish is a key consideration for all EDM applications. Although there are several parameters that affect the surface finish, clearly, your choice in graphite plays a critical role. The "EC" range of graphites provides a cost-effective solution to meet your surface finish requirements. The chart below indicates the surface finish required and our graphite recommendation:

Graphite Surface Finishes of
EC-4 6.3 µm 250 µinch 36 vdi
EC-12 3.2 µm 125 µinch 30 vdi
EC-14 2.2 µm 88 µinch 27 vdi
EC-15 1.6 µm 63 µinch 24 vdi
EC-16 1 µm 40 µinch 20 vdi
