Description
Corn Cob Grit #18 is a coarse corn cob abrasive intended for cleaning and surface preparation where a relatively strong particle action is required. It combines the cleaning capability of a coarse grade with the naturally softer characteristics of plant-based corn cob media.
This grade is suitable for industrial users looking for a lightweight abrasive option for removing loose contamination, residues, and surface deposits without relying exclusively on hard mineral blasting materials.
Corn Cob Grit #18 Key Features
- Coarse particle classification for effective surface treatment
- Useful mechanical impact for industrial cleaning
- Naturally softer than many conventional mineral abrasives
- Lightweight and easy to transport
- Plant-based and biodegradable abrasive material
- Suitable for controlled surface preparation
- Custom supply and packaging options available

Frequently Asked Questions
What type of cleaning is Corn Cob Grit #18 suitable for?
It is suitable for industrial cleaning and surface preparation where a coarse plant-based abrasive can provide useful mechanical action.
Why choose a corn cob abrasive for surface preparation?
Corn cob media offers a naturally softer alternative to many mineral abrasives and can be useful when controlled cleaning is preferred over highly aggressive abrasion.
Can #18 be used for coating preparation?
It can be considered for selected surface preparation processes. The appropriate grade depends on the substrate, coating system, contamination, and required surface condition.
Can this grade be supplied in bulk?
Yes. Bulk supply and customized packaging can be arranged according to order volume and customer requirements.
Does humidity affect corn cob abrasive?
Excessive moisture can affect the handling characteristics of plant-based abrasive media. Proper sealed packaging and dry storage are therefore recommended.
