Anchor Abrasives is a
privately held company and was formed in 1971. Founder, Frank Shoemaker
is credited for naming the company after the system for anchoring nut
inserts into the nonusable portion of the disc. Our staff has been
analyzing disc-grinding operations and formulating discs since the
early 1950's. Today, we are leaders in state-of-the-art formulation and
manufacturing of double discs, cylinders, centerless and roll wheels .
Anchor Abrasives moved into a new manufacturing facility in 1998, which
has been designed with the latest technology to produce high quality
custom abrasive products. Anchor grinding wheels are sold to many of
the best known manufacturing names in the World. Anchor's products
grind
a variety of bearings, springs, ceramics, cutlery, hand tools, bars,
tubing and automotive parts including connecting rods, valve plates,
piston rings, and pump parts. 
At Anchor Abrasives we
specialize in the design and manufacture of resin, epoxy and
oxychloride bonded nut-inserted discs and cylinders, recently adding
resin bonded centerless and roll wheels. We are a highly skilled team
that devotes maximum effort in the development, manufacture, and
application of these very specialized products. Changing manufacturing
methods, closer tolerances, and material specifications demand a
supplier whose abrasives can evolve with these changes. Anchor's modern
technology, high standards, and unmatched performance are the result of
innovation and the pioneering of new concepts in grinding technology.
