Blastrac® shot blasting is a cost-effective and environmentally friendly method for preparing concrete and steel surfaces.
This labor and time-saving process strips, cleans and profiles simultaneously. It leaves the surface immediately ready
for the application of coatings or overlays—eliminating drying time and costly disposal procedures associated with
other surface preparation methods.
Shot blasting is the preferred method of surface preparation, recommended by most coating manufacturers. It produces
excellent bonding characteristics that promote reduced coating failure and maximum floor life.
HOW IT WORKS
Blastrac walk-behind shot blasting systems use a high performance, airless, centrifugal wheel for propelling blast
media at a high velocity, in a controlled pattern and direction. Ride-on systems use a paddle wheel configuration.
In both types, metal abrasive, thrown by the rapidly rotating blast wheel, is accelerated towards the surface being
prepared. The media strikes the surface and rebounds along with removed contaminants into a recovery chamber
(separator). The dust collector removes pulverized abrasive, dust and contaminants. Very little abrasive is lost and
the usable media is returned to the storage hopper for recirculation by the blast wheel.
Different surface profiles can be achieved by varying shot size, shot flow rate and machine travel speed.
on CONCRETE floor
• Prepares concrete for recoating or application of overlays
• Removes markings, dirt and old coatings
• Prepares parking lots and garage decks
• Cleans factory and warehouse floors
• Ideal for airport runways
• Used on bridge decks, highways
on STEEL floor or wall
• Removes paint, rust, mill scale and marine growth
• Cleans ship and aircraft carrier decks
• Removes nonskid coatings
• Cleans offshore platforms
• Prepares petroleum and water storage
tank surfaces
OTHER SURFACES
• Cleans brick or stone
• Removes paint pavement markings from
asphalt surfaces
