Injection moldable plastic laps

摘要

A lap used for the grinding, fining and polishing of glass and plastic lenses is constructed of a one-piece injection-molded reinforced polymer body. The front surface of the lap is curved and adapted to receive an abrasive pad. The rear of the lap has a skeletal rib structure of projecting interconnected ribs. Polymers suitable for forming the lap include various crystalline polymers and copolymers having adequate chemical resistance, strength, rigidity and thermal resistance.
