One of the most common finishes on metal parts, especially prior to anodizing aluminium or quickly cleaning up 3D printed parts is sandblasting. At HLH we offer sandblasting surface finishing for CNC machined parts, 3D printed part and cast or forged parts. Sandblasting is mainly used for visual purposes and comes in several different grits which indicate the size of the bombarding pellets. Sandblasting or shot blasting is also used to remove burrs and sharp edges from parts.
Sandblasting is a form of bead blasting or media blasting surface finish. Other popular media blasting finishes available at HLH are glass bead blasting or tumbling. The easiest way to request a sandblasted or tumbled finish on your parts is to send us a picture of the type of finish you require. The finishes range from very fine grains to quite coarse.
