Abrasive Grit Blasting Facility

GALVATEC (Fabrication & Galvanizing Technologies Co. Ltd) has been equipped with an Abrasive Grit Blasting machine (70 cm height, 1m width and 1.0 ton weight) meant for the services, to accommodate our customers’ needs. In the galvanizing process, all interior and exterior surfaces are coated with corrosion-inhibiting zinc, which metallurgically bonds with the base steel. This metallurgical bond occurs if all surfaces to be galvanized are entirely clean.

The first phase in hot-dip galvanizing process is intended to obtain the cleanest possible steel surface by removing all of the oxides and other contaminating residues. Abrasive Grit Blasting, therefore, is a vital surface treatment process widely used in cleaning. It is a process by which an abrasive media is accelerated through a blasting nozzle by means of compressed air. This method not only is used to remove rust, mill varnish and paint coatings, but also to prepare the surface for high performance coatings, good luster and surface texture.
