Custom Stainless Steel Portable Sandblaster Tank
1. Brief Profile
The Custom Stainless Steel Portable Sandblaster Tank is a premium abrasive blasting system engineered for high-performance surface preparation in industrial, marine, and automotive applications. Manufactured using advanced 304/316L stainless steel, this tank combines durability, corrosion resistance, and precision control to deliver superior rust removal, paint stripping, and surface finishing.
Designed for customization, it accommodates specific operational requirements, including tank capacity, pressure ratings, and nozzle configurations. Leading manufacturers such as Wuqiao Mechanical (China) and Chongqing Xinyu Pressure Vessel (China) produce these tanks under strict ISO 9001, ASME Section VIII, and CE certifications, ensuring reliability in harsh environments.
The system operates on compressed air, propelling abrasive media (e.g., steel grit, glass beads, or aluminum oxide) at controlled pressures (70–150 PSI) to achieve consistent results. Its portable design—featuring wheels, ergonomic handles, and lightweight stainless steel construction—makes it ideal for on-site use in shipyards, construction sites, and fabrication workshops.
