Blasting

Bead blasted compressor parts

Here at AGS we can offer Blast cleaning services using Medias such as Australian garnet, Recycled glass & glass bead, to standards SA 2- SA 3.

Blasting is used to remove build up of paint & corrosion from many surfaces; it is also used to achieve a profile to which coatings can adhere, thus inceasing life expectancy making the process more cost effective. 

We can work to blasting standards SA 2, SA 2.5 & SA 3 depending on the specification; we can also carry out a brush off (flash) blast SA 1 to remove light rusting.
