The Data-Driven Solution
After comprehensively analyzing the specific requirements, we developed our innovative Fortis Mill grinding wheel technology. On-site testing produced remarkable results:
A Global Abrasives Partner Focused on Mutual Success
At Weiler Abrasives, our experience dates back to 1898 when Joseph E. Weiler began manufacturing brushes for the jewelry industry in Pforzheim, Germany. Since then, we’ve grown and evolved into a global manufacturer serving customers in over 80 countries with nearly 1,500 employees around the world.
“While the company has grown and expanded significantly since those humble beginnings, our commitment to developing long-term partnerships with customers, co-workers, and community hasn’t changed. We like to call that our 3C’s.” Chris Weiler, Executive Chairman.
Whether you are looking to improve your surface conditioning processes, optimize your consumable spend, or train your team on the safe and proper use of abrasives and brushes, Weiler has the people and expertise to help you achieve your goals.
Weiler: Your Competitive Edge
Product Innovations

Optimum Use Line
Patent pending Optimum Use Line provides a visual reference to help get the most out of the wheel. Using the wheel to its full life reduces change-overs, which helps users be more productive while reducing waste and abrasive spend.

Cut Back
PTiger Type 27 grinding wheels are designed with fiberglass cut back from the edge for aggressive grinding right out of the box.

Longer Life
Patent pending Optimum Use Line provides a visual reference to help get the most out of the wheel. Using the wheel to its full life reduces change-overs, which helps users be more productive while reducing waste and abrasive spend.
