Abrasive Blasting Vessels
 LaGrange Products has produced a wide variety of abrasive
blasting vessels for a number of industries over the years, and can be depended
upon to satisfy your particular OEM applications.
Abrasive blasting consists of directing a stream of compressed
air and abrasive material against a surface to smooth, roughen or shape it. The
process is also used to remove exterior dirt, rust and other undesirable elements.
Generally, there are two methods of applying the abrasive
substance; dry and wet. Dry applications involve a pressurized vessel containing
an abrasive media, which controls its flow into a compressed air stream. In wet
blasting, the abrasive material is added to a pressurized stream of water or other
liquid.
Numerous abrasives may be used in the process such as aluminum oxide, glass beads, steel shot, metal
pellets and soda powders.
