Zinc Cut Wire
Chopped zinc wire is mainly used for deburring and cleaning aluminum castings. Due to the relatively low hardness, there is no loss of material on the blasted object, and at the same time zinc wire is very gentle on the blasting equipment. The surface acquires a uniform, even, shiny structure.
Application
Blasting of aluminum castings
Packaging:
In 25 kg bags or 1t / big bag
