Blasting media refers to the materials that are used in abrasive blasting to clean and finish surfaces. There are several different types of blasting media available, each with its own unique properties and characteristics.

Aluminum oxide is a hard, angular abrasive that is commonly used for cleaning and finishing metal surfaces. It is also used for removing paint and rust. Aluminum oxide is durable and long-lasting, making it a popular choice for industrial and automotive applications.

Glass beads are another popular type of blasting media. They are made from crushed glass and are used for creating a smooth, glossy finish on surfaces. Glass beads are also used for deburring and polishing metal parts. They are a non-aggressive abrasive and are safe to use on most surfaces.

Steel shot and steel grit are both made from crushed steel and are commonly used for cleaning and finishing metal surfaces. Steel shot is spherical in shape and is used for removing paint, rust, and other types of coatings. Steel grit is angular in shape and is used for creating a rough surface finish, typically used in preparation of surfaces before applying coatings.

Copper slag is a by-product of copper production and is used as a blasting media. It is a hard, angular abrasive that is effective for removing paint, rust, and other types of coatings. Copper slag is also used for preparing surfaces for painting and coating.

Walnut shell grit, corn cob grit, and silicon carbide grit are all natural abrasives that are used for cleaning and finishing surfaces. Walnut shell grit is made from crushed walnut shells and is used for cleaning and polishing delicate surfaces such as wood or plastic. Corn cob grit is made from crushed corn cobs and is used for cleaning and finishing metal and wood surfaces. Silicon carbide grit is a synthetic abrasive that is used for cleaning and finishing a wide range of surfaces.

Plastic abrasive grit is made from crushed plastic and is used for cleaning and finishing delicate surfaces. It is a non-aggressive abrasive that is safe to use on most surfaces.

Garnet grit is a natural abrasive that is made from crushed garnet crystals. It is a hard, angular abrasive that is effective for removing paint, rust, and other types of coatings. Garnet grit is also used for creating a rough surface finish and is commonly used in preparation of surfaces before applying coatings.

In conclusion, there are several different types of blasting media available, each with its own unique properties and characteristics. The type of blasting media that is used will depend on the surface being cleaned or finished and the desired outcome. It’s important to choose the right type of blasting media to ensure that the job is done correctly and efficiently.
