Process Comparisons of Sand Blasting & Bead Blasting

Juize Machinery

Media & texture

Sand uses sharp, angular particles, which cut into surfaces. This makes it ideal for aggressive cleaning but also more likely to cause surface damage.

Beads are round and impact the surface gently. They clean and polish without removing much base material.

Pressure & speed

Sand blasting uses higher pressures, making it faster and more suitable for shaping or deeply cleaning surfaces.

Bead blasting runs at lower pressures. It’s slower but safer for intricate or soft parts.

Finish outcome

Sand blasting leaves a gritty, matte surface. It feels like rough sandpaper. This texture helps paint, powder coat, or glue stick better.

Bead blasting gives a soft, satin finish. It hides marks from tools and smooths small flaws. This gives it a cleaner and more polished look.
