FEATURES AND BENEFITS

  • Approved under Mil-P-85891A Military specification for plastic blast cleaning media.
  • Produces far less dust than walnut shells or glass bead allowing for a clean, easily visible work atmosphere.
  • Properly used, will not abrade sensitive surfaces, prolonging the life of expensive molds,tools, and parts.
  • Deburrs and deflashes aluminum, zinc, and magnesium parts without damaging part surfaces or altering critical tolerances.
  • Sharp, granular edges produce quick cleaning action in less time, saving money.
  • All media is non-toxic and produces no silicosis hazards contributing to a safer work environment.
  • Can be used in air and wheel-blast equipment, eliminating the need to acquire new equipment in most cases.
