Sandblasting
Here’s just a few benefits of having your parts sandblasted:
Sandblasting removes rust, mill scale, grease, and old coatings more completely and consistently than manual methods like wire-brushing or sanding.
The controlled surface profile left by blasting gives powder coats, ceramic coatings, and paints a mechanical “tooth” to grip, leading to longer-lasting, more durable finishes.
Blasting delivers uniform surface texture across complex shapes, internal corners, and recesses where hand sanding is difficult or impossible.
For multiple parts or larger components, sandblasting is far faster than manual preparation, reducing turnaround time and labor costs.
Blasting can restore aged or corroded parts to a near-original condition, preparing them for refinishing or inspection.
Different media and pressures can be selected to achieve specific outcomes—aggressive cleaning, mild cleaning, peening for fatigue resistance, or creating a smooth matte finish.
Proper blasting in a controlled environment minimizes residue and prepares parts in a way that reduces the chance of coating failures from leftover contaminants.
Improved adhesion and longer coating life reduce the need for rework, touch-ups, or premature part replacement.
