Key benefits of grinding with a tungsten carbide platen are;

Durability - The tungsten carbide platens are highly resistant to wear, even a P60 3M Cubitron belt wont make a scratch on it.
Flat and smooth surface - The carbide platen provides a flat and smooth surface that allows for more precise grinding and better control over the piece you’re working on.
Consistent results - The precision ground machined surface of the carbide platens ensures consistent results every time, making it easier to achieve the desired grind angle and finish on your workpiece.

Carbide Platen details;
The carbide platens are 50mm wide and 3mm thick precision ground tungsten carbide bonded to 10mm thick aluminium backing plates.
The top edge of the carbide is rounded off to eliminate snagging and to prolong belt life.
Mounting holes to suit your grinder are taped and bolts are included.
