    Difference Grades
Click For Summary
Granite is graded based on flatness tolerance, with grades ranging from 0 to 1. The discussion seeks to clarify whether there are additional differences in material properties among these grades beyond flatness. The original poster expresses a lack of familiarity with granite and difficulty finding relevant information. Participants are encouraged to provide insights or resources to address these questions. Understanding the distinctions in granite grades is essential for informed selection in applications.

Hi guys, There are different grades of Granite (grade 0, 00 and 1). From what I have researched online, the grades are defined by the flatness tolerance. I would like to know besides of flatness, is there any differences in its material properties in different grades?

I'm not familiar with the material, and I can't find any related information to solve my doubts.

I would really appreciate it if anyone could help to clear my doubt.

Thank you in advance!

Short version is that I'm doing some heavy forming on a piece of 5052-H32 and I'm running into issues with it work hardening. I've tried the Sharpie trick with a propane torch. But I'm not sure this is doing anything. I'm also seeing conflicting opinions whether to quench or air cool. So I'm looking for some expert opinions. (Oven heating is not an option due to size.) Thanks. edit: The...
