This product is carefully sourced and processed. Strict, custom-designed specifications allow for a high-quality, high-performing, crushed glass abrasive.  By using the proper blast methods your glass performance is maximized. Our crushed glass abrasive is superior to other abrasives in a variety of applications, for performance, health, and 
environmental benefits.  

Applications: 
Fine (70/100): Perfect for blasting aluminum, chrome, brick, concrete, and wood. Applications may include graffiti removal, dustless blasting, paint removal, aged wood restoration.

Medium-Fine (40/70): Surfaces you can blast include slate, marble, fiberglass, stone, copper, brass, iron, brick, granite, or concrete. Ideal for mill scale removal, building restoration, automotive, general cleaning or stripping.

Medium-Coarse (20/40): Uses include bridges, tanks, steel construction, metal fabrication, or precast concrete where a deeper profile is preferable.

Benefits of Glass Abrasives

Recycled glass abrasives benefit industries in several ways.

  • Cleaner: Our abrasives are manufactured from 100% recycled glass. It directly helps reduce landfill waste and limits the use of more toxic slags. Non-reactive and inert, it can be used near and around water. It also doesn’t require post-blast cleaning.

  • Safer: Contains less than 1% free silica and Beryllium is not listed on SDS

  • High Performance: Crushed glass delivers a natural whiter metal finish. It causes significantly less embedment issues—up to five times less than slags and many other expendable abrasives. The dust produced when using glass abrasives is translucent which can allow for increased visibility and operator production, when compared to other abrasives. Our abrasives are also QPL Approved (Mil-A-22262B) and CARB approved at select plants.
