Key usage: Stainless steel shot is primarily used in high quality blasting surface treatment of parts (aluminium, brass, steel, stone)
Production technique: gas atomization, mechanical treatment(smooth), sieving
Composition: Cr at 18%
Structure: Austenitic microstructure is dominant
Hardness: 250 to 430 HRV
Particle shape: round shot
Particle size distribution: 45micron to 3.5mm
Key characteristic: low hardness, long life, high corrosion/oxidation resistance
Colour: silver-grey
| Description of the material and main chemical components | Granules of stainless steel at 18% . Small presence of Si. Granules have austenitic structure |
|---|---|
| Description of the manufacturing process | Melting of alloy, gas atomisation, mechanical treatment, sieving |
| Typical applications | Air and Turbine blasting on parts requiring deep cleaning result still keeping low surface roughness. Normally used on aluminium, brass, copper and alloys, stainless steel and stone slabs blasting treatment |
| Particle shape | Granules globular round |
| Main characteristic | Compared to Cr-Ni variance, slightly higher hardness bringing best results when used for deep cleaning still respecting good surface roughness. Working duration and material cost is slightly lower |
| Particle upper cut size (full range) | 0,15 mm to 3,35mm |
| Particle upper cut size (typical) | 0,30 mm to 2,36 mm |
| Application notes | Hardness range 300 to 430 HV |
| Type | Upper cut size(µm) | Particle size 90 % retained |

| Description of the material and main chemical components | Granules of stainless steel at 18-8% Cr-Ni. Small presence of Si and Mn. Granules have austenitic structure |
|---|---|
| Description of the manufacturing process | Melting of alloy, gas atomisation, sieving |
| Typical applications | Air and Turbine blasting on parts requiring soft abrasion (by round and not too hard granules), good resistance of the blasting media to rust, high durability of granules. Particularly used on aluminium, brass, copper and alloys, stainless steel and stone slabs blasting treatment |
| Particle shape | Granules spheroidal round |
| Main characteristic | Austenitic structure and round particle shape allows soft abrasion effect, high resistance to corrosion, avoidance of dust effects, low wearing of equipment, long life of media |
