2-3mm 3-4mm solid glass beads as toy filling material

Solid Glass Beads are small, spherical beads made entirely of glass, typically ranging in size from microns to several millimeters in diameter. They are manufactured through processes like flame polishing, melting, or precision grinding to achieve smooth, uniform surfaces.

Available Size

The size can be customed by customer requirement.

Key Properties

• High Hardness – Resistant to abrasion.
• Chemical Inertness – Resistant to acids, solvents, and corrosion.
• Optical Clarity – Transparent or opaque options.
• Smooth Surface – Low friction, ideal for polishing and finishing.

Applications

—Abrasive Blasting – For cleaning and peening metal surfaces.
—Reflective Markings – Mixed in road paint for high visibility.

—Polishing & Deburring – Used in vibratory tumblers for metal, ceramics, or plastics.
—Fillers & Additives – In composites, coatings, and adhesives for reinforcement.
—Jewelry & Crafts – Decorative beads for accessories and art.
—Scientific & Medical Uses – In chromatography, fluidized beds, and microscopy.

solid glass beads as a toy filling material advantages:

advantage of Glass Beads as Toy Filling:

–Durable & Long-lasting – Glass beads don’t compress or degrade over time like some soft fillings.

–Smooth & Pleasant Texture – When properly polished, they can provide a soothing sensory experience.

–Weighted Feel – Useful for calming/sensory toys (e.g., weighted stuffed animals or stress-relief items).

–Non-Toxic & Hypoallergenic – If made from high-quality, lead-free glass, they are safe if contained properly.

–Aesthetic Appeal – Can be used in clear or decorative toys for visual effects.

Best Uses for Glass Bead Fillings:

–Adult sensory/stress-relief toys
–Decorative or display toys (not for rough play)
–Weighted blankets or lap pads (if securely sealed)
