Glass Beads

Glass Beads Abrasive

Because of their hardness and spherical shape, the glass beads abrasive may remove contaminants and metal oxides without hurting the treated surfaces. Because glass does not chemically react with other materials, the micro glass beads do not cause corrosion on the treated surfaces and leave no foreign substance deposits.

Large Glass beads and glass grit are made under strict quality control parameters by Sand Blasting Manufacturer. With a peening action, glass beads clean and remove surface residues, producing a beautiful surface finish. They are suitable for use on ferrous and nonferrous surfaces, as well as in wet blasting machine and dry blast machines. 

All important aeronautical criteria are met and exceeded by top quality glass beads. Vaquashene, which comes in over ten different grades, will clean, texture, peen, and remove surface deposits while causing minimal damage to the substrate and imparting a range of surface finishes.

Glass beads blasting media can be strung in single strands, sewn to items in a variety of stitches, or needle woven to look like a fabric band. Small Glass Beads strung on a single strand of threading material are frequently used to make necklaces or bracelets, and a single strand can be stitched to an item to create intricate designs. Glass Beads blast media can also be sewn to individual things to create complicated patterns. In contrast, needle woven beads must be strung in strands and then woven together into a ring on a loom. The phrase backing material refers to the fabric to which the beads are fastened, such as a shirt, dress, or bag. Cotton and linen thread, as well as sinew, are frequent threading materials.

Glass Beads Abrasive Common uses

Glass Beads for Cleaning

Cleans and prepares metal parts' surfaces without introducing ferrous contamination or affecting tolerance:

Glass Beads for Peening

Reduces tensile stress in metal parts, extending the life of most components and reducing stress corrosion cracking.

Glass Beads for Finishing

• A technique used to conceal and blend blemishes and discolorations caused by welding, grinding, and fabrication procedures.
• Produces aesthetically attractive finishes that are repeatable on a variety of metal substrates.

Glass Beads for Deburring

This process peens and eliminates burrs, resulting in a more aesthetically pleasing surface.

Glass beads Features

• When compared to steel shot, less material delivery energy is required.
• Angular abrasives cause less equipment wear.
• Environmentally friendly.
• There is no free Silica.
• Clean the landfill.
• When compared to steel shot, more particles impact every second.
• Can be directed precisely where it is needed with a sand blasting nozzle.
• Consistent size aids in achieving a consistent, repeatable finish.
• The medium is non-destructive and will not damage the material substrate
