Glass Bead Blasting Metal

Perfect for the cost effective satin finishing of non-ferrous parts, glass bead blasting is a safe, versatile method that leaves a beautiful satin sheen on brass, aluminium, copper and stainless steel. The resulting surface is also a great key / prep for further finishing like paint, powder coat, ceramic and electro-plating. Glass bead blasting will conceal machine lines, remove discolouration and light coatings. The very fine glass beads will make contact with the entire surface including tight spots, internals and corners leaving a uniform finish across the part. Our glass bead cabinet can process items up to 600 x 600 x 600 mm / 25kg.


What Is Blast Finishing ?

Blast finishing is a process that uses high-pressure air to propel small particles of an abrasive material at a surface, which cleans, polishes, or otherwise modifies it. There is no other way to achieve this unique finish

What Is Bead Blasting?

Bead blasting is the most common form of blast finishing. It’s a process where small beads made of plastic or glass are propelled by high-pressure air at a metal surface, creating a smooth finish with no graining or directional patterns. Blasting is great as preparation for painting, coating or electro plating metal surfaces, as the satin finish allows paint or coating to adhere to the surface.
