Stelux™ CG stainless steel grit

Stelux™ CG: Stainless steel grit designed for surface preparation and roughing profiles

Our Stelux™ CG Cast stainless steel grit is a high-performance abrasive material designed for advanced surface preparation. Due to its high mechanical performance and lifetime, Stelux™ CG offers a real ecological alternative to other surface preparation solutions, such as blasting with aluminum oxide, garnet and other mineral abrasives, which generates much more waste and dust emissions.

Performances

Stelux CG Stainless Steel Grit

Improved coating performance due to cleaner & dust-free parts with optimized roughness profile.

Uniform Surface Finishing:

The consistent shape and hardness of our Stelux CG stainless-steel grit ensure even, high-quality surface finishes, enhancing coating adhesion and overall product quality.

High Efficiency:

it provides faster and more effective surface preparation compared to other abrasive materials like Garnet or Aluminum oxide, resulting in reduced processing times and improved productivity.

Cost Savings:

Due to its durability and recyclability, cast stainless steel grit helps our customers save on operational costs and reduce overall waste over any non-metallic abrasives like Garnet, AlOx, Silica sand, etc.
