If you work in CNC machining, precision grinding, industrial repair, jewellery fabrication, tool sharpening, or you resell high-quality metalworking solutions, one truth stands out: quality and profitability go hand in hand. That’s precisely where the SDC/CBN Electroplated Diamond Grinding Rod from AliExpress shines. Priced at just €20.15 including VAT via:
https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_c2I1uGcL
there are no extra customs or admin fees. This makes it not only a strong technical choice, but also a commercially smart pick for professional use or resale.
While European suppliers often charge €69–€149 for comparable heads, AliExpress — through https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_c2I1uGcL — offers the same industrial quality for a fraction of the price. The difference exists because AliExpress now collects VAT up front and displays the final VAT-inclusive price at checkout. In the past, imports from China could trigger surprise fees upon arrival; today the total amount is transparent and guaranteed.
What makes this grinding head stand out?
The electroplated rod is available in both SDC (synthetic diamond) and CBN (cubic boron nitride) variants:
- CBN excels on hardened steels, stainless, bearing steels, heat-resistant and nickel-based alloys.
- SDC is the go-to for super-hard non-metals: tungsten carbide, ceramics, agate, glass, composites, semiconductors, graphite and more.
Typical applications include:
- CNC milling and grinding centres
- Precision deep-hole finishing
- Fine tool sharpening
- Manufacturing of tight-tolerance components
The electroplated bond secures the abrasive grains firmly, so diamonds do not shed during operation. The result is stable sizing and repeatable surface finish plus a notably longer service life. Choose head diameters of 15/20/30 mm and shank sizes of 10/16/20 mm directly on https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_c2I1uGcL.
A sound investment for professionals
In real-world use, this head delivers:
- Lower tool wear at high RPM
- Reduced machine downtime
- Better surface integrity and finish
- Thermal stability with less risk of burn or distortion
