Dry blasting
Dry blasting is also known as Bead blasting, Sand Blasting, Shot Blasting or Media blasting.
Dry blasting is primarily used in paint preparation on heavily corroded metals such as steel and cast iron. We often use this process on chassis components such as subframes, wishbones and steel motorbike chassis.
Dry blasting doesn’t always have to leave an etching profile. New and used machined parts from the Engineering and Manufacturing sectors can benefit from this process to reduce machining marks and produce finishes which are required by the customer with a wide range of different medias to suit different applications and finishes.
Medias can be used on their own or in combination to get the right result for your application.
COMMON USED MEDIAS
- Plastic media
- Crushed glass
- Walnut shells
- Corn Cob
- Aluminium oxide
- Steel shot
Stripping
Another advantage of dry blasting is that previous materials with plating and anodising applied can be stripped using this process helping with the reapplication of these sectors.
Customised to your budget
We understand that our customers have projects on a budget. Along side this we can blast and strip parts and components and apply zinc and etch primers to suit peoples needs if wishing to handle top coat finishes themselves.
