Babbitt Trading: Your Trusted Abrasive Supplier in Singapore for Saint-Gobain Flexovit & Kobelco

At Babbitt Trading Pte. Ltd. (“Babbitt Trading”), our longstanding focus is on supplying premium solutions for critical welding operations. For many years, this has been anchored by our role as a trusted distributor of Kobelco welding consumables in Singapore and the surrounding region.

In order to provide more comprehensive support from initial material preparation through to final weld quality, Babbitt Trading recently partnered with Saint-Gobain Flexovit to distribute their cutting and grinding wheels, which form a natural and complementary extension to our welding product portfolio. This partnership immediately establishes Babbitt Trading as a leading abrasive supplier in Singapore, reinforcing our commitment to total workflow quality.

Flexovit and Babbitt Trading: A Compatible Partnership

Flexovit Singapore brings an internationally recognised abrasive brand engineered for professional use in fabrication, shipbuilding, offshore, engineering, and construction. Its cutting and grinding wheels are characterised by:

• Reliable, industrial-grade performance.
• Consistent and repeatable product quality.
• Strong emphasis on operator safety.

All Flexovit cutting and grinding wheels supplied by Babbitt Trading comply with EN safety standards for bonded abrasives (such as EN 12413), establishing a robust foundation of quality and safety. In addition, our premium Flexovit range bears the oSa® (Organisation for the Safety of Abrasives) mark, indicating adherence to stringent, independently monitored requirements for safety, testing, and traceability.

This safety- and standards-driven approach is fully aligned with Babbitt Trading’s core business of supplying premium Kobelco welding consumables, and we focus exclusively on reputable, high-performance brands that our customers can rely on with confidence in the most demanding applications.
