Atoma Diamond Sheet - #600
Atoma Diamond Sheet - #600
These Atoma Diamond Sheets are identical to the abrasive surfaces used in our Atoma diamond plates—offering the same fast, hard-wearing cutting performance—only without the fixed aluminium substrate.
Supplied with a waterproof adhesive backing, these sheets can be applied to the flat substrate of your choice, making them ideal for those replacing a worn sheet or building a custom sharpening setup.
To make things easier, we've sourced two substrates that pair beautifully with the diamond sheets:
1. Glass Substrate
Chosen for its consistent flatness, our 10mm glass backing turns your diamond sheet into a lightweight, low-profile flattening plate with minimal variation. Especially well-suited for flattening waterstones, the glass option can be double-sided, allowing you to mount different grits on each face. Once adhered, it performs like a full diamond plate with excellent accuracy.
2. Steel Substrate
This heavy 16mm mild steel plate was developed in response to customer requests for a flat, weighty base suitable for serious grinding. Machined to within 0.005mm flatness, it’s ideal for metalworking applications and sharpening workflows that require more heft. Designed to be clamped in a vice or used benchtop with waterstones passed over the surface, it can also host two different grits—one on each side—or double as a traditional lapping plate.
Please note: Each item is sold individually. To build a complete setup, please add your preferred diamond sheet and substrate (glass or steel) to your cart separately. We’ll ship them individually, and you’ll need to adhere the sheet to your chosen base at home.

It's really good. Easy to use and care for. Good at flattening. Just bit by bit and not too fast.
Needed a faster way to restore a chisels square edge than using 300 grit stone, the Atoma #140 diamond sheet is perfect for this and for flattening whetstones up to about 400 grit. The #140 was an ideal addition to my stones at the very coarse end for heavy lapping. 140 diamond to remove and shape, then 300 stone and 1000 stone to hone and finally 6000 stone to provide a razor sharp and mirror like finish. Very happy with how the Atoma #140 diamond sheet performs.
I was in the market for a 2K stone for a while, as something easier on the steel (than my usual Naniwa Chosera 1K). Razors that don't require hard work (chip removal, geometry correction etc..) will benefit from this stone. It's easy to work with, doesn't clog too much, it's hard, and keeps its flat. Don't forget to flatten the surface before using on precision instruments. Service from the JTA was stellar.
