I assume it is yes, but I am not sure
The type of finish you expect depends on how corroded the pipes are and how they are going to be then. You can blast aluminum wheels to provide a textured finish however, if you want a mirror-like finish, you will need to sand the textured finish out and then polish it. This medium is a good choice for corrosion because it's just heavy enough to take the corrosion from aluminum without ruining it too much. In general, a heavier compound for aluminum is not needed while a lighter compound will be less abrasive to the finish but may take longer to remove
To ship them, they are placed in a bucket and put into a box.
This is a medium size, and I replace it when I notice that the parts are not coming clean or are taking a long time to clean
Selected User Reviews For Blast Media, Glass Beads, Medium
It was disappointing to find that I was given 50 pounds of medium in a large bucket. The second photo shows the actual content. Powder leaks from the side of the package because it has a hole in the side. Based on the weight of the package, I received only There is a lot of false advertising here, which I am very disappointed in. It ended up costing me more than I expected.
Although the size of this product is as small as 106 microns, it is advertised as a "medium" product. Upon looking at it, it would appear that it consists mostly of small particles. As such, it may only do an okay job of removing paint and corrosion It leaves a satin finish when sanding, which is perfect for motorcycle cases because the piece will be polished, so it's a great product. Yet, I may test the same manufacturer's "Coarse" grade to see if it is well-suited for my needs.
The media blaster's replacement optics work but not nearly so well as the ones that came with it. There was disappointment in my heart.
My glass beading machine was missing exactly what I needed. This product was much better than the product I had previously used.
Please make sure you are purchasing glass beads as these are very rare and difficult to find. It is a good idea not to empty a reclaimer/separator back into the cabinet since you will not be able to see while blasting it. In my cabinet I use them with HF Blast. A heavy bucket was delivered by UPS in good time, though it is heavy.
As a first time user, I am experiencing some difficulties. I like them very much! My steel and aluminum are getting very little dust from these. A really nice finish can be achieved by painting or plating this size. The fact that it is 5 gallons, which translates to 53 pounds, is also appealing to me. There are two times as many brands as there are others.
The product is excellent.
i got my beads today, and they are all round, as you can see under the microscope. The product is also made in the United States. Thanks a lot.
