description

T-3 MELAMINE Having a Barcol hardness of 64-72, T-3 Melamine is the most aggressive, fast blasting media we offer. It may be used with great effectiveness for a wide array of cleaning and stripping requirements and is a useful substitute for other harsh abrasives such as glass beads. You can expect the best results using T-3 for the removal of stubborn primers, paints, hydrocarbon deposits, other hard materials on molds, steel, iron, and engines.

features
  • Blasting without roughening or deformation of the surface, without generating heat (that can warp, marr, or pitt surfaces)
  • Very little expenditure of time (because of sharp particles the surfaces are finished very fast particularly if pressure blasting cabinets are used)
  • Chemically inert, therefore no harm to health or environment
applications
  • Steel- and chromed molds of the rubber and plastic industry
  • Aluminum- and steel molds of the foam plastic industry
  • Electronic parts and components, Semi Conductor
  • Engine parts and brake linings
  • Composite parts
  • Parts and components of automobiles
