What is ISO 22636?

ISO 22636:2022 outlines essential safety requirements for superabrasive products, including construction, marking, dimensional stability, strength testing, and safe usage. It covers products like:

  1. Diamond grinding wheels
  2. CBN (Cubic Boron Nitride) tools
  3. Superabrasive cutting and grinding components

This standard does not apply to bonded abrasive or coated abrasive products (which are covered by other standards such as ISO 603 or ISO 21951), but specifically focuses on high-performance abrasive tools used in precision industries.

Why is ISO 22636 important?

Industries using superabrasive tools operate in high-speed, high-risk environments. Non-compliant or substandard tools can result in serious accidents, production halts, or equipment damage. ISO 22636:2022 helps address these challenges by:

  1. Ensuring the structural integrity and performance of tools under load
  2. Mandating proper labeling and traceability
  3. Requiring clear operational guidelines and risk mitigation measures
  4. Encouraging manufacturer accountability and global acceptance


What are the benefits of ISO 22636?

Adopting ISO 22636:2022 enables manufacturers and suppliers to:

  1. Meet global safety expectations for high-speed rotating tools
  2. Reduce the risk of workplace injuries and equipment failure
  3. Improve customer confidence and product reputation
  4. Facilitate export and market access due to internationally recognized compliance
  5. Align internal processes with best manufacturing practices


What kind of businesses can benefit from ISO 22636?

ISO 22636:2022 certification can significantly impact your business by delivering the following advantages:

  1. Enhanced Product Safety: Demonstrate due diligence by complying with internationally accepted safety norms.
  2. Market Differentiation: Stand out from competitors by offering certified, trusted, and high-quality superabrasive products.
  3. Reduced Liability Risks: Minimize the likelihood of product failure or workplace hazards, protecting your brand reputation.
  4. Streamlined Compliance: Satisfy buyer, importer, and government requirements with ease.
  5. Improved Operational Standards: Implement standard-based testing, labeling, and product handling systems across production lines.
  6. Better Customer Retention: Build long-term trust with clients seeking certified and safe superabrasive tools.
