India Stones are made from aluminum oxide abrasive, are brown in color and are filled with oil during the manufacturing process. This type abrasive is preferred for producing exceptionally keen, long lasting edges and for high quality steel tool work. They are available in coarse, medium and fine grits. 

· Fine (F) 320 Grit 
· Medium (M) 240 Grit
· Coarse (C) 100 Grit 

Although oil-filled, India Stones should be used with an oil such as our Stoning Oil or Polishing Lubricant and Diamond Thinner for best results as it will help prevent stone loading (clogging the pores of the stone with the material being removed which prevents cutting action).
