Bristle Blasting technology simultaneously removes corrosion and generates anchor profile. The bristle tips are designed to strike the corroded surface with kinetic energy that is equivalent to standard processes that use grit blast media.
Immediately after the bristle tips strike the surface, they retract (“rebound”) from the surface, which results in both corrosion removal and micro-indentation that exposes fresh surface. Consequently, surfaces that have been treated by Bristle Blasting have a texture and visual cleanliness that mimics those obtained by traditional grit blasting processes.
Advantages:
- Removes corrosion, coatings, scale and adhesive residues
- Grit blasting alternative
- Surface preparation grade comparable with Sa 2½ up to Sa 3 per ISO 8501-1
- Roughness levels up to 120 µm Rz
- ATEX approved for use in Zone 1 (potentially explosive) atmospheres in accordance with Ex II 2G c IIA T4 X
- Fast, flexible and cost-effective to use
- Ideal for spot repairs, touch-up work and preparing welds
