MBX Pneumatic Bristle
Blaster Kit w/ Air Cooling & Noise Reduction
Introducing the MBX
Bristle
Blasting
System
An innovative surface preparation & maintenance
solution
that
removes corrosion and generates an anchor profile in a
single step
Generates Anchor
Profiles
Ranging from 2.6 to 3.3mil
on Hardened Steel
The
Bristle Blaster in
an industrial tool designed to generate anchor
profiles on hardened
steel for structures such as pipelines, bridges &
oil platforms.
I
have other MBX tools for automotive and light
industrial use.
The patented MBX Bristle Blaster Technology is especially
beneficial and competitive when the use of
conventional Grit Blasting methods is not economical
or not possible.
MBX Bristle
Blasting qualifies in particular for spot repair of
steel constructions and finishing of welding seams
(while cleaning the surface and creating an anchor
profile).
Further in areas or in applications where the use of
conventional blasting is not allowed by safety
regulations or by reasons of environmental protection,
the MBX Bristle Blaster will be the right solution.
The MBX
Bristle Blaster is used in many industrial applications, e.g.
in the oil and gas industry, the petrochemical
industry, in bridge construction, shipyard industry
and maintenance works of steel constructions, wind
turbines etc.
- Bristle Blasting is a process that uses a
specially
designed rotary bristle tool for achieving both
corrosion removal and
an anchor profile
- The rotating bristles are DYNAMICALLY TUNED to
the
power
tool which results in impact and immediate retraction
of the bristle
tips from the corroded surface
- The bristle tips strike the corroded surface
with
kinetic
energy that is equivalent to grit blast media,
generating a texture and
visual cleanliness that mimics the grit blasting
process
- Bristle Blasting simplifies the surface
preparation
operation and reduces expense through the elimination
of expensive
equipment, media and extensive environmental and
safety measures

- Removal of
corrosion, mill scale and defunct protective
coatings with a surface cleanliness similar to SA
2.5 (NACE No.2/SSPC-SP10 to SA 3 (NACE
No.1/SSPC-SP5) - Restores surface to DIN EN ISO
8501-1 / SA 2.5 to SA 3.
- Surface texture
/ Anchor profile up to 120µm (Rz) / 4.72 mils
- Roughness capability from 40- 120µm Rz
/ 1.57 - 4.72mils . Also in areas where blasting is
not permitted. Applies for non-ferrous metals as well.
- Improved
integrity of treated surfaces - Generates
compressive residual stress along treated surfaces
providing crack growth resistance, improved fatigue
life, and improved corrosion resistance.
- Negligible heat
generation - Surfaces free of thermal damage
and/or heat marking.
- Eco Friendly -
GREEN surface preparation, does not use/produce
hazardous materials. Low energy requirements.
- Simple and
Economical - Eliminates the need for complex
and costly abrasive blast equipment. Benefits include:
- no recycling costs for contaminated
blasting abrasives
- avoidance of major transport costs of the
blasting abrasives
- rapid commissioning
- continuous in-service operation due to
ergonomic low system vibration
Safety
- Low vibrations
- Continuous use of the tool for a number of hours per
day is possible due to the low levels of vibration
from the tool. There is no risk to operator health
resulting from Hand-Arm Vibration Syndrome (HAVS).
- No costly
protective clothing required - It is not
necessary to wear costly protective clothing, as is
needed when blasting, due to the low operation speed
of the tool of 2300 rpm. Only safety glasses, gloves
and a face mask are required for safe operation.
- Ergonomic -
A light and ergonomic design allows
continuous operation with minimal fatigue.
- Low noise
levels - A sound pressure level (SPL) of a
maximum of 83.2 dB(A) is reached during operation.
Compare this to other rust removal systems sometimes
capable of achieving a sound pressure level in excess
of 95db(A).
- Low levels of
flying sparks - Hereby declare that the "MBX
Bristle Blaster Pneumatic surface treatment tool" is
in compliance with the Essential Health and Safety
Requirements applicable to hand tools for use in
potentially explosive atmospheres according to the
ATEX directive 94/9/EC
