Plastic Media Type III 54 mesh

Understanding Type III Plastic Blast Media

Type III plastic media is formulated from urea formaldehyde resin, offering a controlled, low-aggressiveness stripping action. The 54 mesh particle size provides a balanced profile, delivering effective coating removal rates while maintaining a fine, consistent finish. This grade is specifically designed for applications where substrate integrity is paramount, such as removing paint from aircraft skins, helicopter rotor blades, and delicate automotive body panels.

Performance and Application Benefits

The angular particle shape of this 54 mesh media ensures efficient cutting action on coatings while being gentle on the underlying surface. It significantly reduces the risk of warping, pitting, or dimensional changes compared to harder mineral or metallic abrasives. Key operational advantages include high recyclability in controlled blasting environments, low dust generation, and the elimination of toxic chemical strippers. It is compatible with standard suction and direct-pressure air blast systems.

Typical Industrial Uses

• Aerospace MRO: Stripping paint from aircraft fuselage skins, control surfaces, and composite radomes without metal loss or fiber damage.
• Automotive Restoration: Removing primers and light body filler from classic car panels, aluminum hoods, and fiberglass body kits.
• Electronics Manufacturing: Deflashing delicate electronic components and cleaning molds without altering critical dimensions.
• Composites Fabrication: Surface preparation of carbon fiber and fiberglass parts prior to bonding or repainting.
