Abrasives

In addition to their roundness and ceramic properties, zirconia steels are incredibly long-lasting. The life of an abrasive can be up to 12 times longer than a glass ball. The advantage is the absence of dust and the minimum wear on the part being machined.

The glass balls are perfectly round and hard, so they will not damage or wear the substrate. They remove dirt, rust, limescale, etc., securing a beautiful surface. There is no chemical reaction between the glass balls and the materials to be cleaned, as the balls themselves are neutral, making them suitable for almost any application.

Because of their high hardness and angularity, aluminia and silicon carbide are the most effective general purpose abrasives. A chemically neutral abrasive containing no other metals, it is ideal for surface treatment of all materials. Its high extraction capacity, even under light pressure, consequently means savings in processing speed, time, effort and compressed air.

Stainless steel abrasive gives a brilliantly clean surface with no darkened areas or residue. The abrasive's hard specific gravity allows for high cleaning efficiency and high impact force.

Steel abrasive is used in a shot blasting machine or pressure jet blasting machine. The abrasive used is generally a round bladed abrasive used in a shot blasting machine or a angular bladed abrasive used in a jet blasting machine. The steel abrasive is ideal for the treatment of both large and small iron and steel surfaces.
