OTHER METALLIC ABRASIVES
Bearing Steel Grit
High-performance abrasive made from forged bearing steel — for intensive cleaning and surface preparation.
Bearing Steel Grit is produced by crushing forged bearing steel, eliminating casting defects and providing higher hardness, superior durability and more stable particle geometry compared to traditional cast steel grit.
It maintains sharp cutting edges much longer, offers higher blasting efficiency and ensures a consistent surface profile.
- Made from forged high-chromium bearing steel → exceptional mechanical strength.
- No casting defects → stable particle size and shape.
- Sharp, long-lasting edges → very high cleaning efficiency.
- Reduced dust emission and extended media life.
- GL/GH hardness levels for demanding industrial cleaning.
