Glass bead blasting produces a clean, bright, satin finish on parts without changing their dimensions. Glass beads are used in blasting cabinets for finishing, polishing, and removing burrs and debris from parts. Finer glass beads allow for stress relieving delicate parts and thin welds without causing damage. The size of glass beads used must be considered to ensure they can be separated from parts after blasting.

Available in a wide range of sizes, glass beads are primarily used in blasting cabinets for honing, polishing, peening, blending, finishing, removing light burrs and cleaning most light foreign matter. For delicate thin-walled parts and thin welds, peening with glass bead abrasive material provides the right balance of stress relief without over-stressing and causing damage.
