Plastic Media Type II 40/60 mesh

Thermoset Plastic Strip Media for Controlled Blasting

Type II plastic media is manufactured from high-grade thermoset polyester resins, processed into angular strips that cut through coatings without damaging underlying substrates. The 40/60 mesh grade is a versatile mid-range particle size, commonly specified for removing powder coatings, paint, and light scale from aluminum skins, composite panels, and fiberglass molds. Unlike mineral or metallic abrasives, this media is non-aggressive to most base materials, reducing the risk of warping, pitting, or dimensional changes.

This media is compatible with both suction and direct-pressure air blast systems, as well as centrifugal wheel blasting equipment. It can be recycled multiple times under proper operating conditions, contributing to lower media consumption and reduced waste. Typical applications include aircraft component overhaul, automotive body panel stripping, marine hull maintenance, and industrial mold cleaning.

Performance Characteristics and Selection Guidance

Selecting the correct plastic media grade depends on the coating type, substrate material, and desired production rate. Type II media offers a hardness range that is effective on tough coatings while remaining safe on aluminum, brass, and thin-gauge steel. The 40/60 mesh size provides a practical balance: coarser than 60/80 for faster stripping, yet finer than 20/30 for improved coverage on complex geometries.

Key operational factors include blast pressure, nozzle distance, and angle of impingement. Lower pressures and oblique angles maximize media life and minimize substrate impact. For optimal results, operators should sieve media regularly to remove fines and contaminants, maintaining consistent particle size distribution throughout the blasting cycle.

Packaging and Supply Options

This product is available in multiple pack configurations to suit different consumption volumes and handling preferences. Standard options include 25 kg bags, 50 kg bags, 1-ton jumbo bags, bulk totes, and drum packs. Custom packaging can be discussed based on order quantity and logistical requirements. A minimum order quantity (MOQ) applies and will be confirmed at the time of quotation.
