Aluminum Oxide Grit

Aluminum oxide grit is the type of abrasive source that is used very extensively in a wide variety of industrial applications.

Aluminum oxide grit is a sharp, long lasting abrasive media that is highly efficient and highly reusable/recyclable thus cost-effective in nature. Harder than most blast media, Aluminium oxide blast media the powder will clean and etch quickly on all types of surfaces. Grits of this abrasive media are best for preparing the surface for the polishing and coating of blasting surfaces. It is also used often for surface cleaning because of the rugged nature of this blasting media. The small grit particles and powder strike the area with compression and clean hard corners easily. Approximately it is 50% lighter weight blasting media than metallic media.

Aluminum Oxide Abrasive

Aluminum oxide abrasive grain has twice the number of particles per pound. The fast-cutting action of aluminum oxide grit minimizes damage to thin materials by eliminating surface stresses caused by heavier cutting media. This aluminum oxide is commonly used in sand blasting machine.

The sand blasting machine is basically used to clean the surface of any material, mainly for the metallic surface. It is one of the best, efficient & quick methods, which uses air to throw fine aluminum oxide through a sand blasting nozzle. To form and smooth the surface of any foreign material. It is the best method for the removal of rust that causes material damage.

Aluminum Oxide used in Sand Blasting

Sandblasting is used not only for the removal of rust. But to prepare the surface for high-performance coatings or to treat final products to give them luster & surface texture desired by the consumer. Abrasive media used in shot blasting machines are aluminum oxide, sand, copper slag, steel grit pieces of walnut, powder abrasive, pieces of avocado, etc.

Different types of aluminum oxide have different shapes, hardness, and densities. Each of these aluminum oxides has some unique applications within the blasting industry.
