Ceramic beads B205 media consumption reduced up to 90% Vs glass Beads
Commodity Description
Ceramic beads is widely used as a sandblasting media and perform efficiently in dry or wet blasting systems
as well as in wheel turbine blasting equipment.
It’s Zirconia based material and with ZrO2 about 60-62%, SiO2 25-30%. The ZrO2 microstructure is very fine
and distributed on the SiO2 substrate in a tile shape, so it has good wear resistance and impact resistance.

Features of Ceramic beads
| ||||||
1. Consistency of spherical shape and sizes provides smooth sating surface finish and consistent results from the first part to the last. | ||||||
2.Outstanding elasticity provides a high impact force. | ||||||
3. High wear resistance, high impact resistance, and low dust. | ||||||
4. Cost-effective compared to glass beads, media consumption reduced up to 90% Vs glass Beads. | ||||||
