The
bristle blasting process is a new innovation that
both removes corrosion and generates an anchor profile (also
known as "anchor pattern") by using a specially
designed rotary bristle tool. This tool consists of hardened
wire bristle tips that are bent forward and dynamically tuned
to a hand-held power tool which operates at approximately
2,500 rpm. The bristle tips are designed to strike the corroded
surface with kinetic energy. Immediately
after the bristle tips strike the corroded steel surface,
they retract from the surface, which results in both corrosion
removaland a micro-indentation that
exposes fresh metal surface.
Common
Applications
removal
of corrosion, mill scale, protective coatings
Improved
fatigue resistance
due to compressive residual stress
generated at the surface
Surface
texture/profile
anchor pattern 2.5 to 3.5 mils
Increased surface hardness
for improved wear resistance
Simplicity
eliminates the need for complex abrasive
blast equipment
Note: The MBX Bristle Blaster Set includes
a carry case. Always wear protective equipment such as gloves
and face/eye protection. Additional protective measures
may be required, dependent upon your specific situation,
laws, and policies.
