Central Islip, NY (May 1, 2024) Universal Photonics® Incorporated, global manufacturer & distributor of critical surfacing & polishing technologies, introduces the latest addition to their HASTILITE® brand - the Morphus Series. Emerging from advanced diamond /chemical technology, Morphus consistently delivers a better finish with a faster removal rate.

When it comes to diamond polishing and lapping, HASTILITE® MORPHUS Series refutes traditional either/or logic of high removal rate or high finish. Rather MORPHUS’ next-generation formula has redefined diamond particle shape to enhance removal rates on an average of 50%, while simultaneously achieving surfaces with impeccable finishes. Synergistically combining mechanical and chemical properties, these diamond slurries also boost clean-ability for easier slurry removal from tools and components. The series offers a variety of diamond sizes to meet even the most demanding polishing and lapping processes. Its unique formulation is well paired with a variety of pads, synthetic media like UPI’s polyurethane LP UNALON pads, pitch, and CNC machinery.

Universal Photonics offers a wide range of polishing compounds, slurries, and powders uniquely designed for optimal stock removal and surface finish. While all are excellent performers across a wide range of speeds, pressures, and polishing media, each formulation has a highly individualized set of properties to meet very specific criteria.

Universal Photonics’ dedication to the advancement of surfacing and polishing technology in all phases of fabrication spans nearly a century providing 9000+ products including polishes, pads and equipment. The company’s goal is to deliver the most advanced surfacing and production products available along with efficient sales service and expert technical assistance.
