Application
Sand Mesh
Sand mesh refers to the size of sieve through which a
particular grade of sand will pass. A “16/50” mesh means
that normally, most of these particles will pass through a
No. 16 sieve and a very small percentage will pass
through a No. 50 sieve.
NOTE A No. 16 sieve is a mesh that has 16, 0.046 sq.
in. (1.19 mm) openings per inch.
Round Sand
This refers to the round edge of the grain of sand. River
sand is a good example of sand worn to its size by water.
Angular Sand
This refers to grains of sand which have
triangular--shaped edges. Crushed rock or sand is
usually of this type.
Blasting Angle and Distance
The blasting angle can affect the nozzle distance. Always
maintain the recommended blasting angle and the
proper distance from your work surface for the best
sandblasting performance. See below.
