Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is bead blasting and why is it beneficial for reactors?
A: Bead blasting propels fine glass or ceramic beads against metal surfaces to create a uniform matte finish. This process removes mill scale, cleans surfaces, and creates consistent texture that enhances corrosion resistance, improves cleanability, and provides excellent coating adhesion.
Q: What surface finish does bead blasting achieve?
A: Bead blasting typically achieves surface finishes in the 60–125 Ra (microinch) range, creating a uniform matte appearance. The specific finish depends on bead size, pressure, and application requirements.
Q: What materials can be bead blasted?
A: We bead blast stainless steel, carbon steel, and specialty alloys including Hastelloy, Inconel, and titanium. The process is adjusted for each material to achieve optimal results without damaging base metal properties.
Q: What sizes do you manufacture?
A: We manufacture atmospheric bead blasted reactors from pilot scale (50 gallons) through production scale (15,000+ gallons). Custom sizes are engineered to your specifications.
Q: What is typical lead time for atmospheric bead blasted reactors?
A: Lead times typically range from 12–20 weeks depending on size, materials, and complexity. The bead blasting process adds minimal time to standard reactor fabrication schedules.
