Copper Slag An expendable synthetic mineral abrasive which is widely favoured for open nozzle blasting applications by virtue of its fast rates. A wide range of grades is available to suit most applications. Custom grades are available upon request to meet your specific application. |
|
Olivine A natural mineral abrasive which contains no free silica, ideally suited to the cleaning of brick and masonry. A number of grades are available to suit applications ranging from providing architectural finishes to concrete, to the restoration of the first stonework and sculptures. |
|
SF A synthetic mineral abrasive in which is ideally suited to applications where a pale coloured abrasive is aesthetically or environmentally more desirable. |
|
Chilled Iron A very hard recyclable abrasive which breaks down on impact to expose sharp new cutting edges which promote a rapid cleaning action. It is generally used in closed circuit, air propelled blasting systems. |
|
Steel High carbon steel shot and grit are used in closed systems which employ impeller wheels to propel the abrasive. Steel grit abrasives are available in a range of harnesses to suit all surface treatment applications. |
|
Garnet A hard, durable, low-dusting natural mineral abrasive which is capable of achieving high coverage rates. Coarser grades may be recycled a number of times. Typical applications include blasting of stainless steel and special alloys. Fine grades may be used in jet cutting applications. |
|
Alumina A very hard synthetic mineral abrasive which is generally used in small blast cabinets. It is typically used for cleaning non-ferrous components or providing a profile on stainless steels. Also used for letter engraving on marble, granite and slate. White alumina is used for decorative etching on glass. |
|
Vegetable Abrasives Natural organic abrasives such as crushed olive stone or dried corn cob have a gentle cleaning action and are suited to applications where metal removal is not permitted, such as turbine blades or die and mould cleaning. |
|
Glass Bead A very versatile material with a large variety of applications including deburring, deflashing, decarbonising, peening and mould and die cleaning. |
