    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.

    A step up in finish quality from coal slag grit. Every lot is tested and certified to exceed the standards of MIL-A-22262B, so it produces a uniform finish and contains less than 0.1% free silica. Sharp, angular edges etch a wide range of materials—everything from aluminum to stainless steel to wood. This grit produces less dust than coal slag grit due to its strict processing. Any dust it does leave behind won’t contaminate surfaces. It’s not recommended for removing paint from aluminum and plastic.
    Not Reusable—Typically only effective the first time it's used.
    MIL-A-22262B—This grit meets strict standards for particle size, material quality, and hazardous waste. It’s certified to remove enough scale, rust, and paint to prep metal surfaces and doesn’t contain more than 1% free silica.
