Product Description

Glass bead blasting is a versatile approach to abrasive blasting that offers an attractive satin finish and works for a variety of purposes. It uses lead-free soda lime-type glass in rounded ball shapes. Part of its appeal lies in the smooth, bright finish it creates that differs from the matte look of more angular abrasives.

Advantages

Glass bead blasting has many advantages over other types of abrasive blasting. Aside from the attractive finish, it features other benefits, including:

-No free silica

-Environmentally friendly

-Recyclable

-Good for delicate, thin-walled parts

-Chemically inert

One unique application for glass bead blasting is peening, which helps the metal better resist fatigue and cracking from stress corrosion. One study found that it can increase fatigue strength by about 17.14%. It gives you an attractive satin finish while increasing the durability of the product.

To types of glass beads
Glass beads can range from very coarse to very fine and everything in between, making it easy to customize the blasting media to the specific metal finishing application.
-Coarser beads offer a more intense peening process, useful in applications where a brighter surface finish is required.
-Fine beads, on the other hand, produce a greater impact per pound, resulting in a faster cleaning process that is suited for removing lighter soils. Fine beads are also more capable of reaching smaller, tighter spaces.
