No-Mess Polishing Bobs for Hard Metals
 |  |
Cylinder with Flat Tip | Cylinder with Round Tip |
 | |
Cone with Round Tip |
Eliminate the need for messy compounds while polishing hard metals. These bobs come embedded with diamond, the hardest abrasive we offer. They’re best for cutting into stainless steel, titanium, and other tough materials. Use them to polish small areas and hard-to-reach spots with a drill or grinder for bits and burs. Grit is approximate.
Wool Felt—Softer than rubber, these bobs better conform to your work surface and prevent gouging. They're the best choice for final finishing steps.

Polishing Bob and Compound Kits
 |
Everything you need to polish small areas and hard-to-reach spots. These kits include polishing bobs in different shapes, sizes, and hardness ratings, along with buffing compounds. Use these bobs in a drill or grinder for bits and burs.
Most buffing processes have two steps, cutting and coloring.
1. Cutting removes scratches and surface imperfections.
2. Coloring produces an even finish.
Wool Felt—These bobs absorb and retain compounds better than synthetic felt bobs, so you don't need to reapply as often.
Soft—Create the finest finish and polish delicate materials.
Medium—Balance removing material with leaving a smooth finish.
Hard—For aggressive material removal.
Extra Hard—The most aggressive material removal. These bobs are also good for hard materials.

No-Mess Polishing Bob Assortments for Hard Metals
 |
Keep multiple shapes, sizes, and grits on hand to polish hard metals without any messy compounds. These bobs come embedded with long-lasting diamond abrasive—the hardest we offer. They’re best for cutting into stainless steel, titanium, and other tough materials. Use them to polish small areas and hard-to-reach spots with a drill or grinder for bits and burs. Grit is approximate. Labels in the lid include our part numbers, so it's easy to replenish the assortments.
Wool Felt—Softer than rubber, these bobs better conform to your work surface and prevent gouging. They're the best choice for final finishing steps.

No-Mess Polishing Bob Assortments for Soft Metals and Nonmetals
 |
Keep multiple shapes, sizes, and grits on hand to polish soft materials without any messy compounds. These bobs are embedded with silicon carbide abrasive, which generates minimal heat to reduce material buildup. That makes them best for polishing soft materials prone to clogging, such as aluminum. All cut fast and with light pressure. Use them to polish small areas and hard-to-reach spots with a drill or grinder for bits and burs. Grit is approximate. Labels in the lid include our part numbers, so it's easy to replenish the assortments.

Polishing Bob and Compound Kits for Reciprocating Polishers
 |
Everything you need to polish flat surfaces with a reciprocating polisher. These kits include polishing bobs in different sizes and hardness ratings, along with buffing compounds. The bobs have a flat profile that moves back and forth with the motion of the reciprocating polisher. They’re good for large surfaces or squeezing into narrow, linear spaces. Use the beveled tip to polish at an angle.
Most buffing processes have two steps, cutting and coloring.
1. Cutting removes scratches and surface imperfections.
2. Coloring produces an even finish.
Wool Felt—These bobs absorb and retain compounds better than synthetic felt bobs, so you don't need to reapply as often.
Medium—Balance removing material with leaving a smooth finish.
Hard—For aggressive material removal.
