Saint-Gobain Abrasives has introduced Norton FAB (fixed abrasive buff) buffing wheels that nearly eliminate the need to use buffing compounds. The wheels feature a patent-pending design that incorporates abrasive grains into the buffing wheel for results with Ra values from 1 to 5.

The wheels are tear-resistant and waterproof. Their silicon carbide abrasive is dispersed uniformly and applied to both sides of the cloth for consistent buffing. Applications include automatic or semiautomatic buffing, cut buffing, and mush buffing of hard alloys and soft metals such as aluminum and brass.
