Glass Blasting Beads
At Itaichu, we offer premium glass blasting beads designed to deliver exceptional results in surface preparation and finishing. For a smooth, clean surface on a wide range of materials, our glass beads are an excellent choice.
What are Glass Beads?
Glass beads are tiny, spherical fragments of premium glass. Their ability to clean, deburr, and polish surfaces without causing damage to the underlying material makes them popular in blasting applications. Because glass blasting beads are non-toxic, chemically inert, and eco-friendly, they are a popular option across a range of industries.
Key Features of Glass Beads
Our glass blasting beads offer several key features that make them stand out:
- Durability: Glass beads are tough and can be reused multiple times, making them cost-effective
- Precision: The spherical shape of glass beads ensures even and consistent blasting, resulting in a uniform finish
- Low Dust Generation: Unlike other abrasive materials, glass blasting beads produce minimal dust, ensuring a cleaner working environment
- Gentle on Surfaces: While effective at removing contaminants, glass beads are gentle enough to avoid surface damage, preserving the integrity of the material

Glass blasting beads are versatile and can be used in a variety of applications, including:
- Surface Preparation: This technique ensures maximum adherence by priming surfaces before coating or painting.
- Finishing: Ideal for giving plastic, glass, and metal components a matte, smooth surface.
- Deburring: A useful technique for eliminating burrs from machined parts without changing the workpiece’s dimensions.
- Cleaning: Effective for clearing both metal and non-metal surfaces of rust, scale, and other surface impurities.
