EcoQuip : Pressure Ratings 2

Open the catalog to page 8

Finding the correct balance for your blast job Determining the pressure setting for your application Determining the correct blast pressure for an application is dependent on abrasive media type and nozzle size. There is no clear-cut answer and it often varies depending on the project specifications. However, there are general guidelines that many blasters follow. The illustration below depicts typical pressure ratings for common applications. It is always worthwhile to start at a lower pressure and increase it incrementally. 6.2 - 8.3 Bar (91 - 120 psi) Concrete Surface Prep, Exposing...

Common Abrasive Choices Knowledge is your greatest asset Choosing the right abrasive for the application As a general rule, the finest abrasive necessary for attaining the required surface preparation characteristics should be used. A fine abrasive offers more impact per volume. The more particles in the stream, the more work is accomplished in the same amount of time. When blasting softer surfaces like concrete or wood, less abrasive media should be used. Some examples include crushed glass, glass beads, fine garnet, baking soda or walnut shells. Crushed Glass Coal Slag HARDNESS (MOHS)...

When preparing iron and steel for a protective coating system, there are additional parameters to consider. Coatings are not effective at adhering to hard, flat surfaces, so the blaster is required to develop a pattern of indentations that the coating can anchor to (also known as the anchor pattern). Below is an example of some common media types. Glass Beads Walnut Shells Baking Soda Cleaning Wood, Aluminum and Other Soft Surfaces, Efflorescence Removal Cleaning Soft, Delicate Surfaces, Aircraft, Auto and Boat Part Cleaning Cleaning Wood, Aluminum and Other Delicate Surfaces, Paint, Dirt...
