Glass Bead Abrasive For Surface Preparation

Glass Bead Abrasive For Surface Preparation (30 grit, 60 grit, 80 grit,
100grit)
Glass beads are a unique feature of abrasives used in cleaning or metal surface
strengthening processes, primarily for sandblasting equipment. The raw material
of the glass beads is glass sand, which is fused into a spherical shape by high
temperature suspension and then annealed to eliminate internal stress and
prevent breakage. This transparent, clear spherical structure product does not
have particles embedded in the workpiece during use, contaminating the
workpiece or causing other damage. Using different sizes of abrasives and
different operating parameters, the glass beads will have a special decorative
effect by selective localized controlled blasting on the surface of the
workpiece.

Overview Glass Bead Abrasive (30 grit, 60 grit, 80 grit, 100grit)
The excellent properties of the glass beads make it suitable for use in
cleaning or deburring workpieces with strict deviations without damaging the
surface of the workpiece. Moreover, the inherent strength of the glass beads
makes it suitable for use in equipment capable of circulating abrasives.

Glass beads are widely used to treat workpiece surfaces with residual tension
or under cyclic pressure to produce compressive stress layers for surface
strengthening purposes. Use glass beads to strengthen the surface of the
workpiece, reducing potential hazards such as surface erosion or surface
fatigue.

The Advantage of Blasting Glass Beads For Surface Preparation

Surface treatment with glass beads is very economical and accurate.

The chemical nature of the glass beads is inert and non-toxic. During use, no
iron or other harmful substances remain on the surface of the workpiece, nor
will it adversely affect the surrounding environment.

With rich producing experience, the glass beads quality can control by
adjusting the furnace temperature, the induced draft fan, and cooling water, so
our product roundness is very high, and the glass beads appearance is clear
without bubble.

We worked with the glass factory, and choose the best raw material, it will
give a promise on quality from resources.

We have 24 hours quality control system, to make sure each lot of glass beads
quality is the same


Factory advantage, we can give the best competitive price

The Application of Blasting Glass Beads  (30 grit, 60 grit, 80 grit, 100grit)

Matt surface treatment of stainless steel products (such as stainless steel
sinks, cabinets, cookers, metal necessities, matte treatment)spherical glass
beads for airfield markings

Cleaning of various abrasive tools, removing tensile stress of various parts
and increasing fatigue resistance. Extend product life and improve resistance
to stress and corrosion. (such as aircraft engine turbines, blades, shafts,
landing gear, various spring gear hydraulic parts, etc.)

Integrated circuit plates; plastic sealing on the tube before tin cleaning and
deburring

Medical machinery, paper machinery, textile Shot peening and finishing of
machinery and all kinds of hardware products; surface treatment of various non-
ferrous metal pipe fittings and precision castings, deburring, removing residue

Rust removal inside and outside of various types of parts, in addition to
oxides, polishing to rough, Clearing stress.

Surface treatment of various jewelry watches, lamps, cosmetic bottles, and
eyeglass accessories.
