120 Mesh Glass Bead Blasting Media for Precision Finishing
Selecting the correct mesh size is critical to achieving your desired surface profile. The 120 mesh grade is a fine, free-flowing powder that delivers a smooth, peened surface without significant material removal. This makes it the preferred choice for cosmetic finishing, mold cleaning, and preparing components for non-destructive testing (NDT).
Key Performance Characteristics
This abrasive is designed for use in standard suction or pressure blast cabinets. The spherical particle shape provides a peening action that relieves stress and improves fatigue resistance on metal parts. Unlike angular abrasives, glass beads do not embed in the substrate, leaving a clean, ready-to-coat or ready-to-assemble surface.
- Uniform Satin Finish: Produces a cosmetically appealing, non-directional matte surface on aluminum and stainless steel.
- Shot Peening: Induces compressive stress layers to prevent stress corrosion cracking and extend component life.
- Low Dusting: High durability and spherical shape minimize particle fracture, improving visibility and reducing media consumption.
- Non-Contaminating: Chemically inert and will not leave ferrous residue, preventing after-rust on treated surfaces.

Applications
Common industrial uses for this abrasive.
Satin & Cosmetic Finishing
Achieves a uniform, non-directional matte finish on stainless steel, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals for architectural and consumer goods.
Shot Peening
Induces beneficial compressive stress to improve fatigue life and prevent stress corrosion cracking in critical components like springs and gears.
Mold & Die Cleaning
Cleans injection molds, die-casting dies, and extrusion tooling without altering critical dimensions or damaging fine details.
Light Deburring
Removes fine burrs and sharp edges from precision-machined parts without significant material removal or dimensional change.
