Olivine Sand 150 mesh

Olivine Sand 150 Mesh for Industrial Blasting

Olivine is a magnesium iron silicate mineral that fractures into sharp, angular grains during blasting. This angularity provides a good balance between cleaning speed and surface profile control. The 150 mesh particle size is typically selected for light to moderate surface preparation tasks, cleaning delicate substrates, or achieving a specific anchor profile before coating.

Because olivine contains virtually no free silica, it significantly reduces the risk of silicosis compared to traditional silica sand. This makes it a preferred media for contractors working under strict health, safety, and environmental regulations. It is commonly used in air blast systems, both suction and pressure-fed, and can be considered for select wheel blast operations depending on the machine configuration and breakdown rate.

Performance and Application Considerations

When selecting Olivine Sand 150 mesh, consider your target surface profile, substrate hardness, and dust containment capabilities. The 150 mesh grade produces a finer finish than coarser olivine grades. It is often used for:

• Removing light rust, mill scale, and old paint from steel surfaces.
• Preparing aluminum, fiberglass, or other sensitive substrates where a softer impact is needed.
• Blasting in enclosed spaces or sites with strict dust control requirements.

While olivine is not as hard or recyclable as aluminum oxide, its lower cost per kilogram and safety profile make it a competitive option for single-pass, open-nozzle blasting operations. For optimal results, maintain consistent blast pressure and nozzle distance. Always consult your equipment manufacturer's guidelines for media compatibility.
