Grit Size Range | Surface preparation, paint stripping | Industry Standard: 24–220 grit (ANSI B74.17) Our Base: 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, 120 grit Our Advanced: 20–150 grit ▲ (Expanded fine grit options) | ▲ Advanced: Covers ultra-fine finishing (e.g., 150 grit for delicate surfaces) Base: Cost-effective for general use | Base: Lacks coarse grits (e.g., 24 grit) for heavy-duty applications |
Material Composition | Coating removal, automotive refinishing | Industry Standard: Aluminum oxide/silica sand Our Base/Advanced: 100% glass beads (ASTM C1240 compliant) | ▲ Both tiers: 50% less dust generation vs. silica sand (OSHA-compliant) Rebound reduction by 30% (ISO 13522) | Lower hardness (Mohs 5.5) vs. aluminum oxide (Mohs 9) for aggressive applications |
Hardness | Delicate surface blasting | Industry Standard: Mohs 7–9 (e.g., alumina) Our Base/Advanced: Mohs 5.5–6 (glass beads) | ▲ Product: Safeguards soft substrates (e.g., aluminum, fiberglass) without marring | Ineffective for rust removal or high-impact applications |
Density | Industrial blasting | Industry Standard: 2.5–3.5 g/cm³ (alumina) Our Base/Advanced: 1.8–2.2 g/cm³ (low-density beads) | ▲ Product: 40% less dust emissions (ISO 15000) Reduced operator fatigue due to lighter weight | Lower penetration power for thick coatings |
Abrasive Efficiency | Paint stripping | Industry Standard: 1.2–1.5 m²/kg (alumina) Our Base: 1.0 m²/kg Our Advanced: 1.3 m²/kg ▲ (Optimized bead shape) | ▲ Advanced: 25% faster coating removal vs. Base tier | Base tier requires higher material consumption for large jobs |
Application Versatility | Marine, aerospace cleaning | Industry Standard: Limited to heavy-duty tasks Our Base: General blasting Our Advanced: Dual-use (cleaning + polishing) ▲ (Polishing grade beads) | ▲ Advanced: Single material for surface prep and post-blast finishing | Base tier not suitable for precision polishing tasks |
