What is metal sandblasting?

Over time, even the most reliable metal structures and assemblies lose their original performance properties. Rust, layers of old paint, scale after heat treatment or carbon deposits impair the characteristics of parts and make further processing impossible. When standard mechanical methods or chemicals fall short, a proven technology comes into play: industrial sandblasting.

KARBAZ LLC provides professional sandblasting services at specialized production sites. We prepare surfaces of any complexity for industrial companies, agricultural holdings and private customers across the country.

What is sandblasting and why is it so effective?

Let’s look at the technical essence of the process: what is sandblasting from the perspective of modern surface engineering? It is a high-performance abrasive blasting method in which microparticles of material (copper slag, corundum, shot or quartz sand) are propelled onto a part by a powerful stream of compressed air.

On impact, the abrasive instantly chips away rust, layers of old paint, welding slag and burnt deposits. The main technological advantage of the method is the creation of controlled roughness. Professional metal sandblasting does more than clean the surface: it forms the correct surface microprofile (Ra/Rz). This greatly improves adhesion when anti-corrosion primers, powder coatings or thermochemical treatment are applied afterwards.

KARBAZ capabilities: from heavy structures to precision parts

Our facility is equipped with modern machinery that allows us to flexibly adjust process settings for different metals and alloys.

1. Cleaning large objects

Professional sandblasting of metal structures is in high demand in the construction and industrial sectors. We accept trusses, building frame elements, bridge assemblies, tanks and machine beds. Timely treatment before applying protective enamels extends the service life of structures by decades.

2. Vehicle components

Restoration and bodywork are impossible without thorough cleaning. We regularly provide careful sandblasting of wheels (both alloy and steel), frames, axles, suspension parts and body panels for cars and motorcycles. As a result, the customer receives completely clean metal with no hidden corrosion spots.

3. Precision treatment and non-ferrous alloys

Soft metals require special pressure settings and abrasive grit sizes. We have perfected sandblasting of aluminium, its cast alloys (silumins), and wrought parts made of brass, copper and titanium. The surface is cleaned without deformation, dents or changes in geometry.

KARBAZ also provides precision sandblasting of industrial equipment parts, moulds, dies and tools.

Alternative technologies

In addition to classic sandblasting, our workshops in 2026 can handle tasks using related methods:

  • Shot blasting in German Konrad Rump (Starokostiantyniv) and RÖSLER RMBC machines — for massive castings, rolled products and shot peening.
  • Glass bead blasting — precise, gentle matting without affecting exact dimensions.
  • Vibratory finishing — mass deburring and polishing of small batches of parts in an abrasive medium.

A wide range of equipment allows us to combine or fully replace technologies depending on the technical specification. Our engineers will always choose the method that delivers perfect surface quality in the shortest possible time.

How sandblasting prices are calculated in Ukraine

We build transparent B2B relationships, so sandblasting prices are calculated strictly according to technical criteria:

  • Geometry and area: the shape of the workpiece, hard-to-reach areas, internal cavities or small holes.
  • Degree and type of contamination: removing light deposits is one thing; removing multiple layers of old paint or deep scale is quite another.
  • Required cleanliness grade: we work to ISO and GOST standards and can deliver any degree of cleaning, from light surface cleaning to deep cleaning to bare metal.
  • Alloy type: the choice of abrasive directly affects the cost of the operation.

To get current prices for sandblasting, send drawings, technical requirements or photos of your parts to our engineers. A detailed quote will be ready within 15 minutes.

Why industrial companies choose KARBAZ

Large plants and manufacturers trust us with their products for several key reasons:

  • Engineering approach. We don’t just remove surface contamination. High-quality metal sandblasting at our facility is a strictly controlled in-process stage in which engineers closely monitor roughness and substrate cleanliness.
  • Corrosion protection. If required, we provide a complete service: immediately after cleaning, we apply anti-corrosion primers or protective finishes, fully preventing freshly cleaned metal from oxidizing.
  • Consistent repeatability. Automation of key processes and skilled staff ensure that every part in a batch, from first to last, is treated to exactly the same quality.

This comprehensive approach allows our partners to completely eliminate internal rejects during subsequent painting or heat treatment. As a result, the customer receives not just a clean part but a reliable base for long-term service.

How to order sandblasting

KARBAZ LLC accepts orders from all over the country. Thanks to well-established logistics and optimized production sites, we provide fast sandblasting in Kharkiv, Poltava, Dnipro and Sumy. Customers regularly send us parts for sandblasting from Dnipro, Zaporizhzhia, Mykolaiv and other industrial centres. Cleaned parts are promptly returned to customers, fully ready for installation, assembly or painting.

For a consultation, an accurate quote or to place an order, contact our technical department by phone, send your specification by email or submit a request through the form on our website. We will choose the best treatment method to preserve the geometry of your parts and extend their service life.
