Guyson Metalbead ®

Guyson Metalbead is an ultra-soft, spherical, microscopic low-carbon steel shot media. It is a gray / black metallic in appearance and can be used in centrifugal wheel-blast machines as well as suction-blast and pressure-blast cabinets.When using Metalbead, media consumption can be reduced from the thousands pounds per year in most glassbead installations to less than 250 pounds per year in most Guyson Metalbead installations. Guyson Metalbead is the ultimate media for complex dies and molds because it consists of microscope spheres that can clean in hard to reach areas. Guyson Metalbead is soft so it resists fracture and will leave molds or dies damage free unlike glassbead that has  sharp particles that tend eat away at the substrate .

Applications: Mold and die cleaning — aluminum extrusion dies, glass container molds, tire and rubber mold cleaning. Heat treat scale removal.
