Perfect for tasks that require significant cutting or reshaping work, stainless steel shot abrasive is a high-performance type of abrasive material. This is used to ‘blast’ the surface of your desired material to prepare it for future treatment
Shot blasting involves the material in question being propelled at high speed towards the product being treated. This can be deployed in a device as heavy duty as an automatic wheel blast machine or handheld air blast systems.
This stainless steel shot is ideal for those working with non-ferrous products or more robust pieces that require a higher grade of treatment to ensure they are truly fit for purpose.
As stainless steel is a hard wearing abrasive material, it’s perfect for deployment in sectors where the material in question is equally hard to treat. This makes it ideal for die cast products and materials such as zinc and aluminium that are durable but need additional care to properly clean or repair.
This is particularly effective within the automotive industry, where the highest standards of surface preparation are required. Failing to do so will lead to a poor quality product, disappointed customers and loss of reputation. This makes choosing a hard wearing abrasive essential when it truly matters most.
The durability of the metal also makes it suitable for pre-coating tasks – something that’s crucial in the transportation and construction sectors. It can also play a helpful role when it comes to dealing with brass and stainless steel forgings, allowing you to achieve the finish you require without sacrificing quality or control.
It can also be used as an alternative to glass bead blasting abrasives and for aluminium rims sandblasting and painting.
Using our AMACHROME product carries a number of benefits, some of which include:
