Materials Used For Our Abrasive Blasting Services

The materials and machines used in blast finishing vary greatly depending on the material being blasted and the desired results. For example, glass beads are a common type of blasting media that comes in many sizes. Glass bead blasting tends to leave a satin-like finish that skews toward a white metal finish subject to the material being blasted. Grit blasting, which also comes in many sizes and materials, is used for more aggressive applications where cleaning is more difficult, such as removing heavy mill scale or cleaning paint. Grit blasting is also used to add texture to material to increase adhesion of paint or other coatings. Other types of abrasive blasting include:

• Tumble Blasting: This is a batch blasting method used to process large quantities of small components.
• Fixture Blasting: This is a blasting method used to process delicate components that need to be handled one at a time.
