Glass Bead Facts
Coarse Beads
Remove larger, tougher soils.
Peen to more intense levels.
Peen to deeper zones in surface.
Produce higher surface profile.
Produce brighter surface.
Consume faster at same pressure as fine beads.
In practice, may consume slower than fine beads.
Fine Beads
Remove smaller, lighter soil.
Yield more impacts per pound.
Clean faster.
Peen to less intense levels.
Peen outer zones of surfaces.
Reach into keyways, fillets, and small areas.
Produce lower surface profile.
Produce matte finish.
Consume slower at same pressure as coarse beads
In practice, may consume faster than coarse beads.
All Beads

Environmentally friendly.
Clean quickly without significant metal removal.
Impart a controlled, clean finish on a variety of metals.
Are chemically inert and will not leave ferrous or other undesirable residues on the surface of the workpiece.
Can be recycled many times.
