Metal blasting medium Saftimetal

Steel, iron, aluminium and brass are formed into pellets or cut wire for cleaning, derusting / descaling and peening applications. Guyson Saftimetal is a high quality, chilled hematite cast iron abrasive with excellent performance characteristics. Throughout its use, the grit remains sharp edged and will produce a clean and bright surface finish. This product has a superior service life than standard chilled iron and with its slow breakdown rate, dust problems are minimal. It is also referred to as angular iron grit. Saftimetal would generally be used in wheel/ turbine or pressure blast systems and is much harder than the equivalent Turbogrit steel abrasive. General engineering, surface treatment and refurbishment applications. Saftimetal is ideal for the removal of corrosion, paint, weld scale etc. and the preparation of surfaces prior to painting, bonding etc. Guyson Turbogrit is heat-treated carbon steel grit, produced by crushing oversized shot pellets. When new, this product is angular but during use, the sharp edges will become round. This allows the blasting process to combine the mass effect of shot with the cutting edge of grit. Turbogrit would generally be used in wheel/turbine or pressure blast systems, but some of the smaller grits could also be used in suction feed systems. Guyson Turbobead is heat-treated carbon steel bead with a uniform Martensitic structure. This provides excellent resilience and resistance to fatigue. The rounded shape remains during use and the shot multiplies its effectiveness during blasting due to the ricochet effect. Wear on blast equipment is minimised and the media itself has an excellent blast life.
