Glass Granulate
Glass granulate is popular for fine blasting work on wood and facades. Due to its angular grain shape, glass granulate behaves more abrasively than round glass beads in its blasting behaviour, but is significantly gentler than the various types of corundum.
Areas of application
- Reusable abrasive, fine abrasive, wet abrasive, dry abrasive
- Filler
Blasting systems
- Pressure blast systems
- Injector blast cabinets
Physical properties
- Hardness: 6 mohs
- Grain shape: angular
- Melting point: approx. 730 °C
- Specific gravity: approx. 2 – 2.6 g/cm3
- Bulk density*: approx. 1.2 – 1.8 g/cm3
*depending on granular size
For safety reasons, we recommend that you use a protective strainer when filling the blasting equipment.
