Package – 275 Pound Drums or 55 Pound BoxesFEATURES AND BENEFITS
Approved under Mil-P-85891A Military specification for plastic blast cleaning media.
Produces far less dust than walnut shells allowing for a clean, easily visible work atmosphere.
Properly used, will not abrade or warp sensitive surfaces, allowing parts to be salvaged and money saved.
Media is treated with anti-static solution which reduces dust, static, and keeps parts cleaner.
Sharp, granular edges produce quick cleaning action in less time, saving money.
All media is non-toxic and produces no silicosis hazards contributing to a safer work environment.
Offers excellent longevity reducing finishing costs.
Will not remove plating, anodize, and conversion coatings when properly used, allowing for very controlled blasting on delicate substrates.
