Steel shots are spherical grains made of molten steel through an atomization pr
Cast Steel shots manufacturing process:
Melting ( steel scrap + alloy)
Atomizing (by high pressure water jet)
Drying
Screening (separate the SAE shot size from the oversized shot particles used for grit production)
Spiraling (remove irregular shaped shot)
Quenching (produce superior particle integrity with minimal stress cracks)
Tempering
Screening
Packaging (25 KGS per one small pp bag)
Our Steel Shot is exceptionally durable – due to its low friability, the impact of blasting actually further tempers the shot so that its hardness increases over time, allowing the media to deliver consistent, repeatable performance over thousands of cycles. As produced, our Steel Shot has a hardness of 40-50HRC (390-510 H.V). And thanks to its extremely low breakdown rate, virtually no dust is produced. Delivering high-impact energy and fast cleaning rates, Steel Shot is used to for heavy scouring and to produce very bright finishes.
