3.11 Selecting Abrasive Media
Media IMPACTOR S 330 (preferred)
Applications:
• Creates a fine to medium texture on concrete
• Removes glazing from tiles prior to subsequent coating with anti-skid floor sealing
• Removes old impregnations and coatings about 1 mm thick
Media IMPACTOR S 390 (preferred)
Applications:
Standard abrasive, suitable for about 50-60% of all applications. Creates a medium profile on
concrete. Fulfills the same purpose as Media No. 3 when a higher speed of the machine is required,
i.e. on asphalt, in order to keep the thermal load low.
• Removes laitance from new concrete
• Roughening of smooth concrete or natural stone
• Removes coatings with a thickness of 1-3 mm
• Cleaning of steel surfaces
Please take into account that the use of incorrect abrasive increases wear. Our
service engineers have the experience to select the appropriate abrasive for the
individual cases of application.
Please consult your IMPACTS customer service department if you have any questions about the
selection of the best abrasive for your blast cleaning work.
