A sandblasting hopper, also known as a sandblasting pot, is a specialized piece of equipment used in abrasive blasting processes. It is designed to hold and distribute abrasive materials (such as sand, garnet, or other blasting media) under high pressure to remove rust, paint, and other coatings from surfaces or to texture a surface.
Sandblasting hoppers are widely used in various industries, including automotive, construction, shipbuilding, and metal fabrication, for tasks such as surface preparation, cleaning, and texturing. Proper training and adherence to safety guidelines are crucial when operating sandblasting equipment to prevent accidents and ensure effective results.
