Bead Blast

Back to All Finishes

Bead blasting is a surface finishing process that uses fine glass beads propelled at high velocity to clean, smooth, and uniformly texture the surface of a component. The process removes minor surface imperfections, oxidation, machining marks, and contaminants while creating a consistent matte or satin finish. Unlike more aggressive abrasive methods, bead blasting is designed to improve surface appearance without significantly altering the dimensions of the part.

At Kion Tech, bead blasting is commonly used as a standalone finishing solution or as a preparation step prior to plating, anodizing, or other surface treatments. The process helps create a uniform surface profile that can improve coating adhesion and enhance the overall appearance of finished components. Bead blasting is widely utilized across aerospace, defense, semiconductor, medical, and commercial industries where clean, consistent surface finishes are essential for both performance and aesthetics.
