Can I reuse blasting media?
Depends on the media:
- Steel grit/shot — 100–200 cycles in a closed reclaim system. The economic standard for blast rooms.
- Aluminum oxide — 4–8 cycles.
- Garnet — 2–4 cycles.
- Nickel slag — 1-2 cycles.
- Coal slag — single use. Breaks down on first impact.
- Glass bead — 4–6 cycles for peening, fewer for cleaning.
Reuse requires reclaim: Without a vacuum reclaim or shop-floor recovery system, even reusable media is single-use because you can't economically pick it up.
