Glass beads are an inert and chemically stable abrasive designed for fine blasting, sandblasting, and final surface finishing. It is made from fused glass with a high silica (SiO₂) content, which gives it high hardness, a long service life, and gentle action on the treated surface.

Glass beads are ideal for applications requiring precision, a smooth finish, and minimal material wear —such as stainless steel, aluminum, non-ferrous metals, or glass.

Glass beads properties:

• Gentle on the surface: suitable for fine finishing
• Free of harmful substances: safe for users
• Recyclable: ideal for closed-loop blasting systems
• Suitable for both injector and pressure sandblasters

Application specifications:

• Polishing and cleaning aluminum and other non-ferrous metals
• Glass sandblasting —creating a frosted finish
• Fine blasting of stainless steel surfaces
• Final surface finishing for a perfect appearance
• Uniformity and homogenization ofsurfaces
• Polishing defects from electrogalvanized zinc coating
• Material surface strengthening (shot peening) — without the use of steel abrasives

Advantages of glass beads:

• Precise and gentle blasting, without damaging the surface
• Ideal for closed blasting systems with the option of abrasive recycling
• Gentle on the material —ideal for delicate surface treatments
• High wear resistance and long service life

Glass beads are suitable for:

• Stainless steel
• Aluminum and non-ferrous metals

Note: Glass beads are not suitable for removing larger contaminants, powder-coated paints, or deep rust. They are best suited for light blasting, polishing, and matting surfaces. Upon impact, glass beads do not remove material like corundum, but rather create micro-indentations that do not damage the surface—they actually strengthen it. The resulting surface thus appears glossy and less porous.
