The answer is quite a lot, and crucially our wet blasting technology is capable of carrying out multiple applications in one operation to dramatically improve productivity.

Here’s what our wet blasting technology can do…

• Cleaning, deburring and finishing in one operation for reduced tool handling costs
• Edge honing to a specific K-Factor for improved durability and longevity
• Edge honing to produce the ideal ‘chip’
• Creating the perfect surface for PVD and other coatings
• Removal of PVD droplets and other coating imperfections
• Peening coatings for increased durability
• Cleaning and finishing additive manufactured round shank tools
• Health, safety and environmental improvements for your operation

Each of the points above corresponds to a section in our Round Shank Tools industry page, so if you want to learn more about any of these points visit the page and the section that’s of interest:
