Product Description

Glass Beads

Glass beads are a popular abrasive media used in sandblasting (also known as abrasive blasting) for surface cleaning, finishing, and preparation. Made from crushed and rounded recycled glass, these beads offer a balance between aggressiveness and smoothness, making them ideal for a variety of industrial applications.

Applications of Glass Beads in Sandblasting
1. Surface Cleaning & Rust Removal
Glass beads effectively remove rust, paint, and contaminants from metal surfaces without damaging the substrate. They are widely used in automotive, aerospace, and marine industries for restoring old parts and preparing surfaces for coatings.

2. Peening & Stress Relief
In metalworking, glass bead blasting is used for shot peening, a process that enhances fatigue resistance by inducing compressive stress on metal surfaces. This helps prevent cracks and extends component lifespan.

3. Deburring & Smoothing Edges
Glass beads provide a uniform finish, making them ideal for deburring machined parts, removing sharp edges, and achieving a smooth surface texture.

4. Cosmetic Finishing (Matte & Satin Effects)
Unlike harsh abrasives, glass beads produce a consistent, non-reflective matte or satin finish, commonly used on stainless steel, aluminum, and titanium in architectural and decorative applications.

5. Mold & Die Cleaning
Glass beads gently clean molds and dies without altering their dimensions, making them suitable for plastic injection molds, rubber molds, and casting dies.

Application

1. Shotblasting: Used for surface cleaning, deburring, rust removal and polishing of metal, plastic, glass and other materials (such as automotive parts, aerospace parts).

2. Polishing: High-precision polishing of precision instruments, optical lenses, and semiconductor components to reduce surface scratches.

3. Road marking, Road Reflection: Added to road marking paint, the high refractive index of glass beads can be used to achieve night reflection and improve traffic safety.

4. Grout Filler: Glass beads are mainly used in seam filling for scenes with special requirements for decoration, wear resistance or environmental protection.
5. Weighted Blanket: The application of glass beads in blanket weighting is suitable for scenes with high weight requirements and less stringent requirements on touch, such as anti-slip floor mats and industrial blankets.
