About aluminum oxide blasting media

Aluminum oxide blasting media is a finely ground ceramic particle, often 50 micrometres, used for airborne-particle abrasion of metal castings. It is used on castings before porcelain is applied. Air abrasion with alumina is one of the most common ways of improving the mechanical retention of materials.

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.
