A 10” long aluminum triangle with 3M® silicon carbide sheet on each face. These sharpening systems provide a final mirror polish to the running surface of your blades to provide the fastest glide possible. You can feel the difference! All blades sharpened at Dimon Sports are finished with a Zandstra 3M® Polishing Triangle.
This polishing system includes two Zandstra Triangles with six levels of 3M® silicon carbide sheets. The first triangle has 40 micron, 30 micron, and 12 micron sheets. The second has sheets at 9 micron, 3 micron, and 0.3 micron sheets. This two-step polishing technique can save you a lot of time on and off the ice. By steadily decreasing from 40 microns to 0.3 microns, your blades will be ready for elite level competitions.
We recommend having two triangles with three grits each (as in this system) to work your blades to a perfect mirror (make 500 strokes with each grit, and then you can count your eyelashes in the perfect mirrored surface your blades!).
