Grinding & Polishing Arbors

Ideal for lapidary and glass work, Lortone Arbors are used for grinding and polishing.
Their widely spaced wheel centers are easy to use and can accommodate a variety of
grinding/polishing wheels and drums. We use a sturdy welded steel frame coated with

a high quality powder-coat nish for durability and smooth running rubber mounted

bearings for quiet operation. Tapped shaft ends make installing spin-on polish heads
simple. Requires the use of an overhead drip or pump fed coolant system. Motor and
wheels not included.

• Comfortable, widely spaced wheel centers

• Clean, Quiet and efcient

• Sturdy welded steel frame

• Replaceable rubber mounted bearings for quite operation.
