How aerospace manufacturers use glass beads for peening, finishing, and surface preparation of turbine blades, landing gear, and structural components.
Aerospace manufacturing demands repeatable surface finishes and strict contamination control. Glass beads meet these requirements as a non-metallic, chemically inert peening and finishing media.
From turbine blades to landing gear and structural fasteners, glass bead processes improve fatigue life and prepare surfaces for NDT inspection and coating.
Aerospace Applications
- Shot peening of engine and landing gear components
- Stress relief after machining and heat treatment
- Matte finishing of aluminum and titanium parts
- Cleaning welds and removing oxidation without dimension loss
Quality Requirements
Aerospace buyers require documented bead size, hardness, and cleanliness. We manufacture soda-lime glass beads with 6 Mohs hardness and tight size tolerances, supplied in traceable batches for quality-critical industries.
