About Cast Stainless Steel Shot
Cast Stainless Steel Shot is designed having solid ball-shaped structure with heat treated surface for assuring good strength. It is utilized in foundries, metal fabricating industries, automotive sector, & aviation. This steel shot is considered perfect for preparing the metal surface before zinc coating or spray painting for ensuring excellent adhesion. It has optimum surface hardness and shows superior resistance to fatigue. Cast Stainless Steel Shot can be availed at reasonable prices in bulk amounts as demanded by our respected customers.
Features:
- Highly durable in nature
- Good impact strength
- Best suited for peening
Exceptional Cleaning and Surface FinishingStainless Steel Shots provide a powerful solution for surface cleaning, derusting, paint removal, and peening, offering a smooth, bright metallic finish on both steel and nonferrous components. Their high roundness (85%) and consistent quality make them ideal for achieving uniform surface texture in industrial applications, ranging from automotive parts to heavy machinery components.
Durable Composition and Long Service LifeWith a composition including iron, chromium (16-18%), and nickel (8-10%) according to specification, these steel shots are engineered for high tensile strength (1000-1200 MPa) and resilience. Their corrosion and heat resistance ensures they can withstand challenging operational environments, while the low foreign matter (0.2%) and oil content (0.1%) help maintain process integrity and minimize contamination risks.
