About glass bead blasting media
Glass bead blasting media has been suggested for air abrasion as a softer material than the sharp, hard alumina used for the same job. The same paper notes that alumina air abrasion leaves surface defects such as flaws, embedded alumina and microcracks.
Airborne-particle abrasion alters the surface of a material with abrasive particles propelled by compressed air or other gases. OSHA defines abrasive blasting as the forcible application of an abrasive to a surface by pneumatic pressure, hydraulic pressure or centrifugal force.
How aluminum oxide and glass beads differ
- Aluminum Oxide — Sharp and hard.
- Glass Beads — Softer than alumina.
What to look at when choosing blasting media
Particle: aluminum oxide for blasting castings is frequently 50 micrometres.
Dust: OSHA defines respirable dust as airborne dust in sizes capable of passing through the upper respiratory system to reach the lower lung passages.
