White Fused Alumina Applications in Aerospace
White fused alumina (WFA) is a popular industrial abrasive for sandblasting and surface treatment. It offers high purity with Al₂O₃ ≥ 99%, Mohs hardness 9, strong self-sharpening, stable chemical properties, and low grinding heat.
In the aerospace industry, WFA mainly serves three key areas: surface treatment, part repair and remanufacturing, and casting refractories. It extends traditional abrasive use to high-end aerospace applications. Unlike some AI-generated content, White fused alumina grain is not used for thermal barrier coatings or shot peening.
