Sandblasting Sand
What is Blasting Sand?
With its simplest explanation; It is made with special materials called sand, similar to sand but different from the sand we know, which are specially produced for this work, such as silica, basalt, grid, and different places of use.
Silica Sandblasting
Silica sand produced in different sizes is used when sandblasting is to be done in thin sheets up to 1 mm and in thick sheets 1-3 mm.
"Sandblasting is the impact of SAND on the metal surface with high pressure air. During this impact, while the sand abrades the metal surface at the micron level, it also scrapes and cleans all kinds of unwanted substances on the surface.”
Basalt Sandblasting
This sand, which can be said to be less dusty, is generally used in indoor environments where the sand can be recycled.
Grit Blasting
It is the type of sand with the least dusting and the best sandblasting power. In fact, it is not sand but iron slag.
Use of Sandblasting :
Basalt, iron grit, steel grit and steel shot products are also used in the industry for sandblasting. Blasting sands are used in various sizes according to the technical properties and corrosion rates of the metal. Coarse granule sandblasting products are generally preferred for high corrosion and thick materials. Fine granule products should be used for more sensitive sandblasting works and fine materials
