Steel shot is one of the most important blasting materials available on the market.

They are also obtained artificially and have a relevant application as a blasting material.

The main characteristics that give them such importance are:

  • High density – about twice that of aluminum oxide and triple glass beads.
  • Surface hardness.
  • Durability, which compensates for its higher initial cost, and the good quality and uniformity of products manufactured in Brazil and easily purchased in the market.

TYPES OF SHOCK

Spherical Steel Shots (STEEL SHOT)

They are supplied in various specifications.

They are used for the elimination of larger burrs, for some cases of cleaning and finishing and also indispensable for high intensity shot peening. Operating costs are small due to their long service life (300 to 400 cycles) and low abrasion.

Roughness

How to define a roughness?

Roughness is the shape of the surface profile (peaks and valleys).

It has a great influence on the adhesion of the coating and its support and must be homogeneous and adapted to the applied coating.

Roughness can be characterized by several parameters:
