Steel Grit Blasting Media

Steel scrap surcharge applies see steel scrap surcharge literature for more information.

Steel grit blasting media. Glass granite marble and steel. Media blasting has a variety of uses from removing a layer of paint to deodorizing a countertop to eliminating fire damage. It can be used to remove rust paint or scale from steel surfaces. Hardness specify later in quote notes.

It s important to understand the different advantages and disadvantages of abrasive types. However when preparing iron and steel for a protective coating system there are additional considerations. Steel grit steel grit blast media is ideal for aggressive cleaning applications. Steel grit is softer than aluminum oxide grit and does not fracture as easily.

Steel grit blasting abrasive is a durable long lasting abrasive blasting media that can be recycled many times in wheel shot blast machines wheelabrator machines manual autonomous robotic abrasive blasting rooms. Extra fine glass bead media can clean thin sheet metals to a smooth dull matte finish. It can be found in applications ranging from anti slip surfaces industrial applications as a blasting media and as a raw material in refractories. When blasting concrete or wood you don t need a hard expensive abrasive or a coarse particle.

Steel grit will quickly strip many types of surface contaminants from steel and other foundry metals. Steel grit offers a more angular shape and sharper texture. This aggressive media is used in blasting and stripping steel and foundry metals. Uses include rail car reconditioning removal of flashing blasting bridges metal parts and forging industry applications.

With a high pressured system and the right abrasive this process can produce both a cleaning and finishing action for your surfaces. Crushed glass makes an excellent inexpensive choice for work on relatively soft surfaces. Steel grit is softer than aluminum oxide and does not fracture as easily making it ideal for aircraft and aerospace applications. Steel grit abrasive blasting media 2 products use pneumatic sandblasting media from grainger to help make surfaces cleaner smoother softer rougher or etched.

Common applications are railcars structural steel and in foundries. It is also comparable in price to most other specialty abrasives. Steel grit effectively produces an etching on hard metals for better adhesion of coatings including paints epoxy enamel and rubber. This alc steel grit abrasive blast media will quickly strip many types of surface contaminants from steel and other foundry metals.

Steel grit is used in airblast rooms and airless wheel blast machines for surface preparation. Media made from carbon steel is available in shot or grit form.
