Recyclable & Cost-Effective
Steel abrasives are used in closed-loop wheelblast systems and recycled thousands of times, delivering dramatically lower cost-per-unit of work than expendable abrasives.
Consistent Performance
Manufactured to tight specifications for hardness, size distribution and microstructure. Delivers repeatable surface profiles batch after batch.
Environmentally Responsible
Minimal dust generation compared to mineral abrasives. Spent steel abrasive is classified as scrap metal, not hazardous waste.
Versatile Applications
From aggressive descaling with angular grit to precision peening with round shot, steel abrasives cover the full spectrum of surface preparation needs.
