FUJI Grinding Wheels Arrive in Batam for Shipbuilding and Repair

FUJI Grinding Wheels Arrive for Batam Shipyard Work

Batam, Indonesia — FUJI grinding wheels have arrived for local shipbuilding and repair customers through PT PIOSHIP INTERIOR INDONESIA. The shipment connects shipyard buyers with abrasive products for routine steel grinding and weld cleanup.

Grinding Wheels for Steel Weld Cleanup

Shipbuilding involves different abrasive tasks, from removing excess weld metal to preparing edges for the next fabrication stage. An economical starting point for routine carbon-steel grinding is the FUJI Super F2 depressed-center grinding wheel, an aluminium-oxide product made using Japanese warm-press production.

Super F2 balances everyday material removal and handling comfort. The improved 24S specification is another option to discuss when faster stock removal is the priority. Select the exact size and grade for the available grinder and the required finish; performance depends on the workpiece, machine and operator technique.

Separate Cutting, Grinding and Surface Preparation

• Steel grinding: choose an approved grinding wheel for weld cleanup and removal of excess metal while preserving the specified workpiece geometry.
• Steel cutting: use a dedicated compatible cutting disc. A thin cut-off wheel must not be used for side grinding.
• Final surface preparation: select the finishing process around the coating or fabrication specification. Grinding alone does not establish that a surface is ready for coating.

See the shipbuilding and repair application guide for a broader discussion of matching the abrasive to the operation.

How to Evaluate the Wheels in a Batam Shipyard

Start with a representative steel weld or component and compare the same task using compatible equipment and a consistent acceptance standard. Record grinding time, wheel consumption, changeovers and the finished surface. Operator feedback on control and comfort is useful alongside these measurements.

Compare cost per accepted task rather than disc price alone. This announcement does not report a controlled comparative trial, so a fixed productivity gain or wheel-life multiplier should be established by your own application evaluation.

Information to Confirm Before Ordering

Provide the steel grade, task, grinder model, no-load speed, required disc diameter and bore, monthly consumption and delivery location. Check the disc label and machine instructions for permitted operation and compatibility. Keep resin-bonded wheels dry and protected during storage, and inspect labels, visible damage and mounting before use.
