The Aluminum silicate sandblasting sand is only sold in 25 kg bags.
DESCRIPTION AND BENEFITS:
This abrasive is intended for free-blast sandblasting with a mobile sandblaster type NS8 40T.
The abrasive is made of aluminum silicate, manufactured from vitrified ash (also known as fusion slag), which is a byproduct of coal-fired power plants.
Aluminum Silicate is precisely processed and graded, and complies with ISO 11126-4 and 11127 standards. It contains less than 1% free crystalline silica, making it suitable for dry blasting.
It is suitable for achieving SA-3, SA-2½, SA-2, as well as SA-1 surface preparation grades.
