An abrasive is substance which is rubbed against a surface to produce desire shape or surface of desired finish. It generally results in loss of material from surface of work-piece while gaining smooth, polished and reflective surface. Abrasive can be use to roughen the surface. Abrasives are nothing but the mineral like materials available in different shapes according to need. There should not be confusion between file and abrasive as files are simply metal bars. Abrasives work on simple principle of difference in hardness. As abrasive should be harder material than work-piece, by cyclically rubbing abrasive over it; practical’s of work-piece tend to leave its surface.
