Catalog : DEBURRING MEDIA : Duramedia Steel

Duramedia Steel

DURAMEDIA® Steel is a non-consumable media. Its durability and increased working pressure make steel the ideal media for a variety of finishes. Steel media produces a burr-free, bright, smooth surface. Parts processed with steel media have longer cycle lives and greater resistance to wear as a result of compressive stress action -- a beneficial by product of the finishing process.

DURAMEDIA® Stainless Steel is recommended when complete freedom from rust is essential. The most commonly used chemistry is 304ss.

 

Primary Uses for Stainless Steel Media:

•For Aggressive Processes...
dramatically cut finishing times by using more acidic compounds, specifically developed for use with stainless steel.

 

•Eliminating or Reducing Compounds...
with stainless steel's inherent ability to resist corrosion.

 

•To Reduce Maintenance, Storage and Handling Costs...
compared to carbon steel media.

 

•To Eliminate Contamination...
from chemical interactions (i.e., iron impregnation) that take place during some finishing processes. Especially important to manufacturers of medical equipment, surgical tools, food processing equipment and similar materials.
