Don’t Let Abrasives be the Root Cause of a Shutdown
Avoid disruptions to rehabilitation / construction projects that are associated with surface preparation and the dusty conditions associated with ordinary blasting. Protect sensitive equipment normally effected by blasting operations. For example:
- Motors
- Mechanical seals
- Compressors
- Rotating equipment and bearings
- Hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders
- Exchangers
Sponge blasting reduces dust and abrasive ricochet, which allow project managers to consolidate and schedule other trades to work in close proximity; tasks normally delayed can now be accomplished simultaneously by Sponge Blasting – to shorten project schedules and reduce the high costs of downtime.
