Atomized Beads Stainless Steel Bead

Stainless Steel Bead

A perfectly spherical abrasive produced by high-temperature atomizing followed by gas quenching. Its controlled nickel content gives it flexibility, and it outperforms conventional blasting media in technical quality, economy and environmental impact alike.

Ceramic & Zirconia Ceramic Bead

Ceramic Bead

A low-cost, high-efficiency surface treatment abrasive produced by melting zircon in an electric furnace above 2000℃. Suitable for both dry and wet processes, and unlike glass or steel bead it delivers a uniform surface roughness.

Ceramic & Zirconia Zirconia Bead

Zirconia Bead

An inorganic oxide produced electrically, offering the highest density and strength available. Over 25× the life of glass bead, with a perfectly spherical shape that makes it easy to manage across blasting, milling and barrel applications.

Eco & Resin Media Plastic Media

Plastic Media

As Korea's first developer of plastic media, we use virgin plastic rather than recycled crushed material — non-toxic, long-lasting and environmentally friendly. Precision grinding leaves the workpiece undamaged, and anti-static finishing gives outstanding cleaning and deburring performance.

Mineral Abrasives Glass Bead

Glass Bead

Efficiency, quality and recyclability are critical in metal manufacturing. Our glass bead cuts cost across aerospace, automotive and electronics, and delivers outstanding performance in cleaning, peening and deburring within the sandblasting process.
