Copper Slag Abrasive
High-performance blasting media produced from copper smelting by-products through controlled melting, rapid cooling, crushing, and screening. Hard, angular particles deliver strong cutting power for rust removal, mill scale, and coating preparation on large industrial surfaces.
Standard Grades
Key Applications
- Shipbuilding & ship repair
- Oil, gas & petrochemical facilities
- Bridges, tunnels & civil infrastructure
- Steel structure surface preparation
- Building facade restoration
Characteristics
- Free silica content less than 1%
- Low dust generation, better visibility
- Consistent surface profile for coating adhesion
Why It Performs
Hard (≥7 Mohs), angular grains bite quickly into rust, mill scale, and aged coatings, delivering fast cleaning rates and a consistent anchor profile for reliable coating adhesion. Free silica content less than 1% supports safer blasting operations than silica sand, while low dust generation improves operator visibility and site conditions. Good durability and recyclability keep consumption rates low, making it a cost-effective choice for large-area work such as ship hulls, storage tanks, and structural steel.
