Question : How does the Profiler give you a straight line across surface of material?

Answer : The ball bearing/rotary touchier within the Alpha® Profiler controls the depth of grinding during application to ensure the final profiled edge will be straight. NOTE: Profiling is complete when the operator no longer hears a grinding noise, and when the run-off water is clear.

Question : What is the life expectancy of the Alpha® Profiler?

Answer : The life of the Profiling Wheel will vary depending on the different classifications of granite hardness. Our Profilers achieve very long life and have fast grinding action due to the “Vacuum Brazed Technology”. Vacuum Brazed diamonds give you aggressive grinding action and longevity, without losing the shape of the profile, unlike Direct Sintered profilers on the market.

Question : Which abrasive should I use to polish after profiling using the Alpha® Profiler E Series?

Answer : If you created a “Hollywood Bevel” on a sink bowl, we recommend using the Alpha® Ceramica or Ceramica EX abrasives since they are flexible and will polish the curved areas of the sink bowl shape. If you created a “Hollywood Bevel” on a straight edge, we recommend using the Alpha® Twistouch Turbo polishing wheels.

Question : What materials can the Alpha® Profilers be used on?

Answer : The Alpha® Profilers may be used on the following materials: Granite, Engineered Stone, Porcelain, Marble and Limestone.

Question : Is the Alpha® Profiler used wet or dry?

Answer : All Alpha® Profilers are to be used for wet applications only.

Question : What keeps the Profiler from dipping?

Answer : The nylon guide will keep the Profiler from dipping during application. Pressing the nylon guide down firmly on the top of the material while having the operator keep this guide flat and level to the surface of the stone, will ensure that the Profiler will not dip during application.

Question : I want to create a “Hollywood Bevel” on my sink, when should I use the Profiler E Series, before or after the Profiler Z Series?

Answer : If you created the sink hole by manual operation using a contour blade, we recommend using the Profiler Z-Series (Zero Tolerance Wheel) to create a smooth vertical edge on the material prior to using the Alpha® Profiler E-Series. A clean smooth vertical edge will allow the ball bearing of the Profiler E-Series to run across smoothly to create the perfect “Hollywood Bevel”, with no ripples.

Question : What applications are the Alpha® Profilers recommended for?

Answer : Alpha® Profiler E-Series is recommended for use on 2cm, 3cm & 4cm material for countertop, sink rim, window sills, steps and door saddles.

Question : Can I purchase this nylon guide separately and replace my old worn out guide?

Answer : Yes. You may purchase this nylon guide through the Authorized Distributor of Alpha® Products where you purchased your Alpha® Profiler. The part # for this nylon guide is: PFBNG01.

Question : Can Alpha® Profilers be used be used on concrete?

Answer : The Alpha® Profilers can be used on concrete; however; due to the abrasive nature of concrete, life of the wheel will be extremely short.

Question : Can I use the Alpha® Profilers on a Park Industries Wizard/Deluxe machine?

Answer : Yes, the Alpha® Profilers can be used on these machines since the spindles are 5/8”-11 threaded. The maximum RPM range for the main spindles on these machines is 3,500.
