Glass Beads 220 mesh

Performance and Surface Finish

The spherical shape and narrow size distribution of 220 mesh glass beads produce a peening effect that imparts compressive stress on the surface layer of metal parts. This helps improve fatigue resistance and stress corrosion cracking resistance in critical components. The media fractures slowly, providing a good balance between cleaning rate and media consumption.

On aluminum, stainless steel, and titanium alloys, this grade yields a uniform satin finish without embedding abrasive particles into the substrate. It is chemically inert, leaving no corrosive residue, which makes it safe for use in aerospace, medical device, and food-grade equipment maintenance.

Process Compatibility

This media is compatible with standard dry blasting equipment, including suction-fed and pressure-fed cabinets. It can also be used in wheel blast machines for specific non-aggressive finishing tasks. For optimal results, maintain a blasting pressure between 40 and 80 PSI, adjusting based on the substrate hardness and the desired finish. The media can be recycled multiple times before it breaks down into fines, which are then extracted by the dust collection system.
