ESE Sponge Media

LOW DUST - SUPERIOR SURFACE PREPARATION

  • SPONGE MEDIA is abrasives of various grade sizes, encapsulated inside the Sponge.
  • Dust and any foreign substances are absorbed by the Sponge Media, which suppresses dust by 98%, compared to conventional abrasive materials.
  • It can be reused up to 10 times.
  • It achieves Sa2.5 to Sa3 with ease, while providing profiles of 0 - 125 microns.
  • With 17 products, it is possible to select and apply our Sponge Media on any surface, achieving your desired profile.
  • Surface preparation is possible in limited spaces without affecting sensitive equipment.
  • Operator visibility is increased and down time decreased considerably, as various contractors can continue their projects while Sponge Media is being applied.

Sponge Media Specification

Base Material Product Name Bag Weight(kg/Bag) Application Profile(μm)
Aluminum Oxide 14/24 SMA 16 18.0 SMA 16 is recommended when very rough surface roughness is required during industrial surface preparation. SMA 16 is very suitable for removing very hard coating films or requiring surface roughness of 75 μm or more, such as TSA. SMA 15 can be achieved surface cleanliness up to Sa 2½ or Sa 3. 80 - 100
Aluminum Oxide 30/40 SMA 30 18.0 SMA 30 is the most commonly used Sponge Media for industrial coating removal and surface preparation. On steel SMA 30 removes mill scale, rust and paint coatings and can be achieved surface cleanliness up to Sa 2½ or Sa 3. 75 - 110
Aluminum Oxide 60/80 SMA 60 13.5 SMA 60 is suitable for removing one or two layers of coating or blasting welding lines. SMA 60 is also designed to remove coatings from aluminum materials or form intermediate surface profiles. SMA 60 can be achieved surface cleanliness up to Sa 2½ or Sa 3. 40 - 60
Aluminum Oxide 80/100 SMA 80 13.5 SMA 80 is suitable for blasts such as aluminum, wood, and stonework. In particular, SMA 80 is designed to be suitable for requiring surface roughness below a designated profile such as aluminum. 30 - 50
Aluminum Oxide 120 SMA 120 13.5 SMA 120 is the choice when selective coating or corrosion removal and minimal surface roughness are required. It can be used to remove thin coatings from steel/aluminum or to give roughness to previously painted surfaces. 20 - 30
Aluminum Oxide 220 SMA 220 9.0 SMA 220 is suitable for light cleaning of sensitive metal composites and other materials or for cleaning turbines. 10 - 15
Aluminum Oxide 320 SMA 320 9.0 SMA 320 is designed for the treatment of sensitive substrate surfaces such as Fiberglass or Carbon Filer. 10 - 15
Aluminum Oxide 500 SMA 500 9.0 SMA 500 is used for very delicate processing, such as turbines, which need to minimize surface painting removal. SMA 500 is suitable for industrial surface treatment with high sensitivity or repainting on existing coatings. 4 - 8
Eco Grit 30 SME 30 18.0 It is similar to SMA 30, and is recommended when the number of reuse is less. 60 - 80
Eco Grit 60 SME 60 13.5 It is similar to SMA 60, and is recommended when the number of reuse is less. 60 - 80
Eco Grit 80 SME 80 13.5 It is similar to SMA 80, and is recommended when the number of reuse is less 60 - 80
Eco Grit 120 SME 120 13.5 It is similar to SMA 120, and is recommended when the number of reuse is less. 60 - 80
Garnet 30/60 SMG 30 18.0 The SMG 30 is designed for limited recovery and reuse of sponge media. SMG can be achieved surface cleanliness up to Sa 2½ or Sa 3. 50 - 60
Glass Bead 60/100 SMGB 60 13.5 SMGB is designed for thin film painting or for cases where gloss is required after painting. 4 - 8
Steel Grit SMSG 18.0 SMSG is typically selected when deep removal by impact such as heavily pitted surfaces(Grade D). And for removing very hard or extremely thick coatings. 100 - 125
Cleaning Grade SMCG 7.0 SMCG can remove contamination, soot, smoke, etc. from steel, concrete, or stone surfaces in a delicate way. 4 - 8
Sponge Only SMSP 4.5 SMSP is designed for contaminant removal and absorption without the presence of moisture and without collision energy damage to delicate substrates. SMSP does not have abrasives. 0
