Improving propeller and helicopter blade performance and longevity by wet blasting…

Propleller finishing by wet blasting

When it comes to maintaining precision aerospace components like rotor and propeller blades, wet blasting offers unmatched advantages:

- Preparation for coating - optimum surfaces for paint and other coatings

- Corrosion and contamination removal — rapid cleaning without distortion

- Damage free finishing - wet blasting does not damage composite fibres

- Maximum bond strength - optimum surfaces for adhesion

Compared to dry blasting, wet blasting is gentler, dust-free, and delivers a cleaner, more uniform finish, ideal for materials like aluminium, titanium, and composites.

From MRO to OEMs, it’s the go-to finishing technology for increasing component longevity, safety, and performance.

It’s the ideal finishing solution for aerospace, rotorcraft, drones, and marine aviation.
