    Abrasive Blasting Media

    Remove paint, coatings, and rust or add texture to surfaces. This media is suitable for use on a wide variety of surface materials.
    Our abrasive blasting materials are sorted from least to most aggressive. The more aggressive the media, the more material it removes from your surface.
    Both particle mesh size and grit measure the size of the abrasive particles. The higher the number, the finer the particles are.
    Bauxite Bead
    Image of Product. Front orientation. Contains Annotated, Inset. Abrasive Blasting Media. Bauxite Bead.
    A step up in hardness and durability from glass bead. This round abrasive lightly peens metals that are too hard for glass bead, such as steel and stainless steel. It's also a good middle-ground, cost-wise, between glass and ceramic bead—it’s more expensive than glass bead because it stays effective for 200 times more cycles, but it’s not as expensive as long-lasting ceramic.
    High Reusability—Effective for hundreds of cycles under normal blasting conditions.
