All Grades of Hyprez compounds are available with hyprez monocrystalline (MA), polycrytalline synthetic (PC) vaf virgin natural (NAT) diamond
Hyprez W compound
A water-soluble formula that cleans easily from the workpiece, hyprez W is recommended for areas requiring a very high luster, but which might be affected by an oil-based compound
Hyprez W was the first commercially successful diamond compound. Formulated by Engis, it is still in general use by the die and mold industry and for precision hand lapping. For additional lubrication, use W lubricant
