China Suppliers Factory of High Hardness Steel Cut Wire Shot - Cylindrical & Spherical Shapes Available

Steel cut wire is produced from recycled steel wires, including bead wires and steel ropes, which are processed into granules using advanced cutting machines. This product is typically available in two shapes: cylindrical and spherical. The size range spans from CW1.0mm to CW3.0mm, with a hardness exceeding 50HRC, making it harder than steel shots. Our unique rounding technology enables the production of steel cut shots, also known as spherical shots. As a leading China supplier and factory of high-quality steel cut wire, we are committed to delivering superior materials that meet industry standards

    Product Applications

    Steel cut wires are made of national standard bead wires, widely used in machinery, automobile, shipbuilding, steel structure, pipeline and other manufacturing profiles and workpiece surface cleaning, strengthening and other processes. Through the high-speed operation of the shot blasting machine, the steel cut wire shot is thrown to the surface of the workpiece in the form of a parabola at high speed, so as to clean up the rust and oxide on the surface of the product and achieve a certain finish and roughness. The most popular size is CW1.5mm, and the hardness is higher than 50HRC.

    In view of its higher hardness, mostly higher than 50HRC, so it is easier to scuff the workpiece materials, especially to some parts which be with lower hardness, especially lower than 48HRC. So usually it is suggested to blast workpieces to mix with steel shots or steel grits for shotblasting, and should to use similar sizes type. Currently also some customers use Low carbon steel shots to mix with steel cut wire shots to blast workpieces and got very good effects.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    1. What sizes of steel cut wire are available?
    Mainly we supply CW1.0mm, CW1.2mm, CW1.5mm, CW1.8mm, CW2.0mm, CW2.5mm, CW2.8mm, CW3.0mm.
    2. What types of steel cut wire can you supply?
    Both steel cut wire and conditioned cut wire are available from our company.
    3. What is the most popular size and hardness of steel cut wire?
    The most popular size is CW1.5mm, and the hardness is higher than 50HRC.
    4. What materials are steel cut wires made of and where are they applied?
    Steel cut wires are made of national standard bead wires. They are widely used in machinery, automobile, shipbuilding, steel structure, pipeline, and other manufacturing profiles for workpiece surface cleaning, strengthening, and other processes.
    5. How does the steel cut wire shot cleaning process work?
    Through the high-speed operation of the shot blasting machine, the steel cut wire shot is thrown to the surface of the workpiece in a parabolic direction at high speed to clean up rust and oxide, achieving a certain finish and roughness.
    6. What is recommended when blasting workpieces with lower hardness?
    Because steel cut wire shot has higher hardness (mostly > 50HRC), it can scuff softer workpiece materials (especially those under 48HRC). It is recommended to mix steel cut wire shots with steel shots or steel grits of similar sizes, or mix them with low carbon steel shots for the shotblasting process.
