- Silver Sponge series. Incorporates aluminum oxide abrasive.
- 16 to 320 mesh available, with the most common coating removal versions being Silver 30 or Silver 60.
- A DG (Double Grind) version is offered in the 30 and 60 mesh. This version is pre-processed to function like a working blend immediately, with up to 75% faster blast speed initially compared to original sponge abrasive.
- Red Sponge Media. Incorporates steel grit abrasive.
- Highly aggressive and typically used to remove pack rust and/or pitting.
- White Plastic Sponge Media. Incorporates Type II 30/40 mesh plastic urea.
- Lightly aggressive and used for coating removal without etching / profiling on steel or aluminum.
- White SPOCC Sponge Media. Incorporates Spherical Precipitate of Calcium Carbonate.
- Lightly aggressive and used for contaminant removal.
- White Glass Bead Sponge Media. Incorporates 60/80 mesh glass bead.
- Lightly aggressive, used for soft alloy substrates where a low-build coating system will be used.
- Green Sponge Media. Incorporates Wollastinite cleaning agent.
- Lightly aggressive, used for contaminant removal where moisture is not present.
- HyperX Media. Proprietary blend of aluminum oxide and other medias.
- Available in Medium or Coarse for 2 or 3 mil profile.
- Uses a higher ratio of abrasive-to-sponge, for faster production than even the Double Grind.
- Lower in cost, but not as effective in dust capture and with some ricochet, this media is best suited inside tanks or pipelines where 100% containment is assured.
- Hyper X media requires a specific 3-screen setup using the 70 series recycler (#3, #16, and #50)
- Super Media-1. Incorporates a blend of steel & ceramic abrasives.
- Highly aggressive, used for concrete blasting to expose aggregate, rubber lining removal on steel, lead paint removal in a demolition project, etc.
- When blasting on steel, this product creates such a high profile (8 mil plus) that some of the sponge will embed. If recoating, an additional cleaning process will be required using a steel brush, Bristle Blaster, etc.
All sponge media is packed 55 bags per pallet, with price breaks available at 1 pallet and at 6 pallets+. Note: Due to our distribution agreement with Sponge-Jet, pricing is not shown on our website. Contact us for fast, competitive pricing or send in the web-form quote request.
