PPIs Released
September 30, 2003 - Portsmouth, NH    

Sponge-Jet, the world leader in dry, low dust abrasive blasting announced that Sponge-Jet blasting has been approved and included in NAVSEA Preservation Process Instructions (PPIs). Three new PPIs have been released and allow for the Sponge-Jet technology to be used for repair in bilge and ballast tanks of the US Navy fleet.

“We are thrilled that the US Navy recognizes the low dust and low rebound attributes of Sponge-Jet blasting… now government contracted shipyards and Navy Preservation teams can enjoy the speed of blasting without the use of hand-tools. It is now easier to perform high-quality weld seam and spot repairs, gaining a much longer operating life compared to mechanical surface preparation - saving the time and money.”

The new PPIs are currently available by contacting Sponge-Jet at 603-431-6435 and are available on the National Surface Treatment Center’s web site at www.nstcenter.org.
