Protect Military Assets And Readiness

Subjected to the most rigorous environments, military equipment is expected to operate at top performance at all times. Corrosion prevention is a priority to maintain equipment; naval vessels, aircraft, vehicles, heavy equipment and armament. Sponge Media™ blasting can prepare most surfaces, including:

  • Advanced materials & armored plates
  • Aluminum
  • Bronze
  • Brass
  • Super duplex
  • Stainless steel
  • Composites
  • Fiberglass
  • High-strength steel and alloys

Selectively strip coatings, remove contaminants and hazardous materials from substrates without generating the excessive dust environments or ricochet damage normally encountered when rehabilitating assets. Sponge-Jet prepared surfaces optimize coating life and asset readiness.

Features & Benefits

  • Decontaminate, entrap and abate hazards
  • Simplify job staging
  • Protect integrity & reliability of equipment
  • Increase asset life and coating performance
  • Reliably schedule & budget
  • Improve worker health and safety

Military Applicazioni

  • Protecting Adjacent Coatings During Bilge Space Spot Repairs

    Newport News Shipbuilding used Sponge Media™ abrasives during a maintenance overhaul to conduct bilge space repair on the Nimitz class Super Carrier USS Carl Vinson (CVN-70); the choice was made based on the technology’s ability to protect adjacent coatings from abrasive ricochet, which is known to cause pinhole corrosion.

  • Australian Navy Barge uses Sponge Media™ over Ordinary Abrasives

    Sponge-Jet wins out over ordinary abrasives on the exterior overhaul of Australian Navy barges; cost of dust (abrasive cleaning/collection labor, inability to work nearby blasting and inability to reuse abrasives) all cut by Sponge-Jet - savings calculated to $120,000 per barge.

  • Effective Removal of Abrasive/CARC Coating with Sponge-Jet

    Aggressive grades of Silver Sponge Media™ abrasives make easy work of removing chemical agent resistant coatings like those used on the surface of this Middle East Army vehicle.

  • Sponge-Jet Removes Toughest Marine Coatings; e.g. top-side non-skid.

    Thai navy turns to Sponge-Jet to remove non-skid coating from perimeter deck of aircraft carrier; the process achieved specified Near White Metal Blast Cleaning Sa2.5 (NACE 2 / SSPC SP-10).

  • US NAVY turns to Sponge-Jet for Protection from Grit Intrusion

    Blasting gun turret on US Navy ship; chose Sponge-Jet to limit grit intrusion of the rotating parts (e.g. bearings and seals)

  • NAVSEA Expects 15-20 year Life-span for Sponge-Jet Blasted Substrates

    NAVSEA directive turns to Sponge-Jet to obtain 15-20 year lifespan on new coating systems in the bilge tank of this USN LHD 6 amphibious assault ship; With greatly enhanced visibility and low rebound, blasters are able to strictly adhere to the specified Sa3 (NACE 1 / SSPC SP-5) White Metal Blast Cleaning finish.

  • Canadian DND Calls for Sponge-Jet to Replace Ordinary Abrasives

    Sponge-Jet abrasives are used for restoring pressure hull and outer shell mounts (removing tile adhesive and corrosion); Canadian Department of National Defense and NAVSEA have approved the use of Sponge-Jet as a replacement for ordinary abrasives.

  • Sponge Blasting Military Vehicles; One-step Coating Removal, Cleaning and Profiling

    Military restoration contractor blasts hummer with Sponge-Jet; Silver 80 Sponge media™ abrasive removes coating and imparts 65 micron (2.5mil) profile.

  • Precision Control to Selectively Strip Coatings

    Selective coating removal, carefully exposes chromate primer on aircraft; Sponge-Jet was the perfect solution to selectively strip and expose harmful hexavalent chromium-based primer because it’s controlled abrasion and extreme dust-suppressing properties.
