The difference between grit and sandblasting.
We have summarized the differences between our large blast equipment, "Grit Blast" and "Sand Blast," concisely.
I have summarized the characteristics of grit blasting and sand blasting as follows: Characteristics of Grit Blasting: The abrasive material is metallic and has very high grinding power, easily removing adhered rust and dirt. It can also remove rubber, plating, and paint from the surface of products. Compared to other abrasives, it causes less wear when striking the target, resulting in reduced dust and waste. However, since the raw material is metallic, there is a possibility of "transferred rust" occurring when applied to materials that are less prone to rust, such as stainless steel. Characteristics of Sand Blasting: In the past, "silica sand" was used as the abrasive material, but now mainly "ferro-nickel slag," a non-metallic abrasive, is used. Because a non-metallic abrasive is used, it can be applied to materials that are less prone to rust, such as stainless steel. It has less grinding power compared to grit blasting, allowing for careful application on soft metals and products with extensive masking. If you have a specific abrasive material in mind or have inquiries about other application uses, please feel free to contact us. Harada Iron Works Hiroshima Official Link
