If you are thinking of acquiring a Sandblasting / Shot Blasting machine, keep in mind the following tips so that your investment is correct:  

• Do a thorough analysis on the safety and quality of the equipment. When working with high pressures these two variables are decisive since any accident will result in extremely high human and economic costs.

• The pressure tank must meet the design, manufacturing and testing requirements under standards ASME;
• Sandblasting / shot blasting hoses and nozzles must be of excellent quality and have adequate thicknesses;
