Mounting consumables cold resins

Metallographic mounting solutions

The metallographic mounting process plays a pivotal role in the analysis of metallography, as appropriate mounting guarantees that specimens are firmly secured, correctly aligned, without gaps between specimen and mount material.

A quality mount ensures an efficient grinding and polishing process without the risk of reworks due to contamination between process steps.

Which mounting solution is best for you?

Selecting the optimal mounting solution for you, you must consider several factors. The most important ones are often:
  • Edge Retention – Prevents rounding for precise analysis.
  • Material Sensitivity – Cold mounting protects heat/pressure-sensitive samples.
  • Conductive Mounting – Essential for SEM to avoid sample charging.
Selecting the right method ensures optimal results.
