All SIDECUT Diamond Stones come with a precision machined flat aluminum backing plate that is colour anodized and laser-embossed displaying the grit. Best of all - when the diamond surface wears out you simply peel off and replace with a new self-adhesive sheet. Saving you money and allowing you to replace the diamond as needed. 

Choosing the best grit:

• 200 grit - Course is best used for burr removal and sharpening. This stone will even sharpen your edges without using a file first. It's always a good idea to carry one in your pocket for a quick hand sharpen or to remove rock damage on the mountain.
• 400 grit - Medium is used for sharpening and polishing. The most commonly used diamond and a good in-between grit. 
• 600 grit - Fine is best used for the polishing and finishing of your edges.
