When you need to strip paint, rust, or any surface coating off something efficiently, consider sandblasting hire. From basic components to a complete blasting kit and package, hire companies have a range of sandblasting hire options for you to select from.
Sandblasting is one of the most convenient ways to strip paint and rust from a variety of surfaces. Thanks to its natural abrasiveness, sand is amazing at removing everything from paint down to grease stains from metal, brick and stone. Which is why sandblasting equipment can be commonly found across many industrial painting and cleaning sites in Australia.
There are multiple kinds of sandblasting machines available, and depending what you're using it for your needs will vary. For work in tighter areas, or on smaller pieces, a small portable machine might be the best option for you. These machines are usually lightweight and come with a convenient carry handle to make carrying it easy.
These machines can also handle blasting more than just sand. In some cases, you may want to use something like glass beads, silica or even pecan shells to get your job done. You'll want to consult with your hire company before filling the equipment though as not all sandblasting equipment can handle different abrasives.
For larger projects you'll probably want to consider using larger sandblasting hire equipment or even full blasting booths to get the work done. Something stripping the paint off a car or piece of heavy machinery requires a large amount of pressure and abrasive material. This work is usually done in an enclosed environment.
Of course, there's an in between option available as well, with mid-sized sandblasting equipment a great option when you don't want to hire multiple machines to complete projects. In a variety of different shapes and sizes, you can find sandblasters starting from around 2000PSI and ranging up to 4000PSI or higher in some cases.
Most of these models will come attached to a frame with wheels, similar to a floor polisher or sander, and can be easily maneuvered around a worksite to suit your needs.
As with most machinery, understanding your needs and what will work best for you is the first step. No two projects are the same so the previous sandblasting equipment you used may not be the right fit for your current project.
Whether you need sandblasting hire equipment for a short-term project, or you're looking to hire it for an extended period of time, there are options out there for you. Contact your local hire company to discover what sandblasting equipment they have available to hire today.
