Paste vs hone grit size.

**TexasBob** · 05-31-2009, 01:10 AM

The literature that comes with the DMT hone I have lists the following equivalences:

60 micron = 220
45 micron = 325
25 micron = 600
09 micron = 1200
07 micron = 2200
03 micron = 8000

What I don't have are the following numbers:

??? micron = 12000
1.0 micron = ???
0.5 micron = ???
0.25 micron = ???

Can anyone help fill in the unknowns?

Extrapolating the above doesn't work because the relationship is non-linear. Here is a graph:

Thanks.

P.S. The grit comparison table you'll have to zoom in a bit, once ya download it.
