Glass Beads Aluminum Oxide 50/80
AB5013
These aluminum oxide blasting beads are an abrasive media used for surface preparation and etching on glass. They are constructed as hard, angular aluminum oxide particles graded to a 50/80 mesh range, which provides an aggressive cut suitable for faster material removal and a more pronounced etched texture. This media is used in sandblasting cabinets and blasting guns when you want to frost glass, create deeper etching, or prepare surfaces for further decoration, bonding, or coating.
Load the aluminum oxide media into a sandblasting cabinet or compatible blasting system and use it to etch or texture glass by directing the abrasive stream at the target area. Use stencils or resist material when you want controlled designs, lettering, or borders. The 50/80 mesh range is useful when you need faster cutting action, such as removing surface contamination, creating a heavier frost, or producing deeper etch depth for strong contrast. Always use proper dust control, eye protection, and respiratory protection appropriate for abrasive blasting, and keep your glass clean and dry for consistent results.
