Glass Beads are precision‑engineered spherical abrasives manufactured from chemically inert soda‑lime glass. Produced from high‑grade glass cullet that is melted into spherical form and annealed to equalise internal stresses, they resist fracture and maintain consistent performance. These clear, transparent spheres provide high‑quality surface treatment across a wide range of industrial applications without altering the dimensional integrity of the substrate.
Performance
Surface Profile
Produces finishes ranging from fine matte to bright satin, with decorative effects achievable through masking and blasting.
Durability
Annealed strength allows multiple impacts, making beads ideal for recycling blasting systems.
Finishing Control
Finer beads yield smooth, non‑glare surfaces; larger beads create deeper textures.
Dimensional Stability
Permits cleaning and deburring of critically toleranced parts without removing base metal.
