Ceramic, plastic, porcelain, steel, and drying media — each engineered for a specific range of finishing demands. Multiple shapes, sizes and grades available to match any component geometry, substrate, or surface finish target.
The workhorse of mass finishing — provides aggressive cutting action for deburring, edge radiusing, scale removal, and surface smoothing in demanding production environments. Long service life and consistent cutting rate batch after batch.
Delivers controlled cutting for delicate and precision components while preserving dimensional accuracy and surface quality. Ideal where tight tolerances must be respected and material removal needs to be measured and predictable.
Ensures gentle polishing and refined surface finishing for precision components requiring smooth, bright results without measurable material removal. Preferred for final-stage polishing where surface quality is the only objective.
Produces high-density burnishing for smooth, bright finishes and improved surface hardness on metal components. Steel pins, balls, and mixed media deliver compressive action — no material removal, maximum surface brightness.
Removes moisture from finished components efficiently while leaving clean, dry surfaces ready for immediate handling, packaging, or coating. Prevents re-contamination and water staining after wet finishing and washing stages.
All LS Industries finishing media are available in a comprehensive range of shapes and sizes — ensuring the media reaches every surface, edge, and cavity of your component geometry. Shape selection has a significant impact on deburring efficiency, surface contact area, and final finish quality.
Sizes available from 3mm to 50mm+ across all types. Custom grades developed on request.
