What is abraion?
The word "abraion" does not exist. You may have been thinking of "abrasion", which is either the process of wearing away or scraping, or damage to some surface because of wearing away or scraping.
What does abraion - Abralon perhaps- mean in bowling balls?
Abralon Pads are a flexible sanding material made by KWH Mirka Ltd. of Finland. Which can be used. for many application's. The abrasive is silicon carbide bonded to a knitted fabric on a foam backing. The grit is rated using the European F.E.P.A. "P" scale and has a grit range of 180, 360, 500, 600 1000, 2000, 400. The flexible weave allows water and air to pass freely through it. Bowling Ball manufactures starting using it to surface and put the final texture on their bowling balls. Pro-shops operator's and player's soon followed, using them to resurface and adjust bowling ball coverstock's. User's found the Abralon pads flexible nature conformed to the ball's shape better and the higher tolerance "P" scale proved a more accurate, consistent texture. They are not meant to be used for ordinary cleaning of a bowling ball (like removing oil or grime off the ball surface.) They are a abrasive like sandpaper and will alter the surface texture.
