GS BALL

Granulated Slag Ball (GS Ball) is a blasting abrasive made from Steel Slag Atomizing Process. It is a substitute for sand and copper Slag, which are generally used for blasting jobs. It is better in performance as compared to Copper Slag in terms of profile and roughness.

GS Ball can be reused for three times whereas copper slag cannot be reused. It is an eco-friendly blasting abrasive since it emits very less amount of dust during the process of blasting.
