Steel Grit & Shot

Steel Grit & Shot

Steel Shot

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. Steel Shot is used to for heavy scouring and to produce very bright finishes.

Steel Grit

Cast steel angular grit produced by crushing specially heat treated steel shot Its behaviour in service depends on hardness-a characteristic readily modified by suitable heat treatment.

Steel Grit is used mainly in wheel last machines for cleaning or preparation work on special surfaces.

In addition, GL and GH Steel Grit are equally suitable for use in wheelblast machines and in most cases air blast equipment.
