Copper slag is a low cost expendable abrasive suited for open blast cleaning and due to its low silica content it does not pose the health hazards created by silica sand. Its sharp, hard particles can provide a fast cleaning action and an excellent surface profile. It is available in various sizes
Copper slag is abrasive blasting grit made of granulated slag from metal smelting processes (also called iron silicate). Copper slag abrasive is suitable for blast cleaning of steel and stone/concrete surfaces, removal of mill scale, rust, old paint, dirt etc. Suitable for SA-3, SA-2 and SA-2. Copper slag blasting media/grit is manufactured of the granulated slag of copper refineries, and used for blast-cleaning of metal surface. In different industries it is called different names abrasive powder, grit, copper slag grit, mineral grit, grinding grains, etc.
Copper slag is a by-product produced during
the smelting of copper, which is then processed into
abrasive products. Typically it is composed of Ferro
silicate material and oxides formed when the
molten slag is quenched in cold water. This cooling
process fractures the slag into coarse, angular particles
making it an ideal choice in many applications. It is a
low-cost expendable abrasive suited for open blast
cleaning and due to its low silica content, it does not
pose the health hazards created by silica sand. Its
sharp, hard particles can provide a fast cleaning action
and an excellent surface profile. Applications of Copper
Slag include abrasive blasting, building materials,
landfilling, road construction, abrasive tools, cutting
tools, tiles, glass, and roofing granules.
THE ONLY BRAND NEW COPPER SLAG IN THE PHILIPPINES.
Copper slag is a by-product of copper extraction by smelting. During smelting, impurities become slag which floats on the molten metal.
