Industrial Glass Beads

A. Application of Industrial Glass Beads

1. Matt surface treatment of stainless steel products (such as stainless steel sinks, cabinets, cookers, metal necessities, matte treatment)spherical glass beads for airfield markings
2. Cleaning of various abrasive tools, removing tensile stress of various parts and increasing fatigue resistance. Extend product life and improve resistance to stress and corrosion. (such as aircraft engine turbines, blades, shafts, landing gear, various spring gear hydraulic parts, etc.)
3. Integrated circuit plates; plastic sealing on the tube before tin cleaning and deburring
4. Medical machinery, paper machinery, textile Shot peening and finishing of machinery and all kinds of hardware products; surface treatment of various non-ferrous metal pipe fittings and precision castings, deburring, removing residue
5. Rust removal inside and outside of various types of parts, in addition to oxides, polishing to rough, Clearing stress
6. Surface treatment of various jewelry watches, lamps, cosmetic bottles, and eyeglass accessories.
7. Glass beads suitable to filtration of the water wells.

B.Oil Well Drilling Glass Beads

Oil well drilling glass beads can be used in all water and oil-based drilling fluids to reduce torque and drag and to aid in the prevention of differential sticking. They should have no measurable effect on the desired properties of the mud system and can be removed by a desilter or centrifuge.

Adding and maintaining 8.0-12.0 kg/m³ of Glass Beads can achieve a reduction in torque and drag anywhere from 15.0 to 30.0%. The severity of hole problems and solids content will determine the actual concentrations required.

C. Glass Bead Filter Media For Water Treatment

Glass bead filter media are a very good choice for water treatment, Traditional filter material, such as quartz sand or granules, is extremely susceptible to attack by fungi, bacteria, germs, algae and calcification due to its porous, irregular structure, The Glass Beads Filtration solution has a significant impact on investment cost reduction for new plants. Customer benefits are from a large scale: less equipment, reduced plant size (footprint), improved filtrate, efficient removal of organics, improved operation cycles (less backwash).

D. In our daily life, the bright, sparkling spoons, cups, bowls, and various decorations which have been polished or ground. We are mainly committed to providing high-quality industrial glass beads for road marking and other industrial use. Micro glass beads play a very important role in road safety and industry. 

In the industrial field, sand blasting plays a particularly important role:

1. Pretreatment:

Electroplating, painting, spraying, etc. are covered by sandblasting before processing, the surface is absolutely clean, and the adhesion and corrosion resistance of the cover layer are greatly improved.

2. clean up:

Metal parts such as castings, stampings, welded parts, heat-treated parts, etc., descaling, residue, and dirt; surface cleaning of non-metallic products, removal of black spots on the surface of ceramic blanks, and reduction of lacquer patterns.

3. Renovation of old parts:

Renovation and cleaning of all moving parts such as automobiles, motorcycles, and electromechanical equipment. At the same time eliminate fatigue stress and extend service life.

4. light decoration:

All metal products and non-metal products (plastic, crystal, glass, etc.) surface marks are eliminated, matt matte treatment, so that the surface of the product is upgraded.

5. mold processing:

The argon matte surface treatment of the mold surface, graphic production, and mold cleaning, does not hurt the mold surface, to ensure mold accuracy.

6. glitch processing:

The micro-burrs of the machined parts are removed, and the broken edges of the injection parts are eliminated.

7. Rework of defective products:

Defective cover removal, poor surface coloration and printing removal.

8. strengthen:

Increase the surface hardness of metal parts and eliminate stress, such as surface treatment of aircraft blades, springs, machine tools and weapons.

9. etching anti-skid processing:

Metal products, non-metal products, surface etching patterns, text and anti-slip treatment, such as: marble, handle slip, seal, stone lettering.

10. jeans treatment:

The denim, whitish and whisker effects of the denim are achieved.
