MAGNETIC NOVA LAPS FOR LAPPING
Our Magnetic Nova Laps give you the fast
polishing performance of Novas combined
with the convenience of an easy on–off
magnetic lap. They attach right onto most
flat laps and are easily removed.
Magnetic Nova Laps have a
1
⁄
16
" thick backing of solid
rubber containing magnetized iron particles so the laps will
adhere to a cast iron, steel or nickel plated lap. The rubber
is coated with a thick layer of our special Nova resin-bond
diamond formula for fast action and lasting service. The sur-
face of the Magnetic Nova is made with a grid pattern for
better performance.
You can use the Magnetic Novas on your present flat lap set-
up in most cases, but they will not work on aluminum or dia-
mond coated discs. If your lap set-up will accommodate an
attachment using a
1
⁄
4
"
-20 bolt (such as on the Genie, Titan
and Pixie), then you can use one of the special back plates
listed below on the right. These steel faced back plates along
with the Magnetic Novas will give you a non-interrupted
polishing surface for maximum efficiency.
Our recommended general purpose grit sequence for sand-
ing and polishing most flats is to use Magnetic Nova Laps
in 30, 60, 280, 600 and 1200 grits, followed by our Super
Premium Cerium Oxide Polish on a felt pad. For deep saw
marks you may add a coarse Diamond Plated Disc. Other
sequences may be used with excellent results depending on
the material to be polished.
Shown at right is a Genie with a 6" steel faced back plate
attached to the right hand wheel adaptor of the machine.
Magnetic Novas (6" size shown lying on machine pan) can
be used on the steel-faced back plate, and are easily attached
and removed from the plate.
These back plates offer a full surface area without the
usual center hole. They are similar to the “No-Hole”
diamond laps with a
1

"
-20 thread bolt for attaching
to the Pixie, Genie, Xpert and Titan or other machines
accepting that size bolt accessory.

(see page 79). Shown above is the back side of a back
plate demonstrating the
