Low Carbon Steel Shot
Low Carbon Steel Shot is a widely used spherical metallic abrasive, typically with a carbon content of 0.10%–0.25%. It features moderate hardness, high toughness, uniform structure, and excellent impact resistance, making it less prone to breakage during use.
This abrasive is mainly produced from high-quality low-carbon steel scrap through strict smelting and processing. It delivers stable performance, low dust generation, and high recyclability, effectively lowering operational costs and reducing equipment wear.
It is extensively applied in surface treatment across industries such as automotive, shipbuilding, steel structure, and foundry. Its key uses include descaling, rust removal, Shot Blasting cleaning, and surface strengthening. With gentle cleaning action, it avoids damaging thin-walled and precision parts while improving coating adhesion and surface quality.
Long service life and eco-friendly properties make low carbon steel shot a cost-effective choice for modern industrial surface treatment.
- S170 (0.5mm): Used for smaller castings and surface cleaning.
- S230 / S280 (0.6mm - 0.8mm): Used for general descaling and surface treatment.
- S330 (1.0mm): Common for medium-sized castings and structural steel.
- S390 / S460 (1.2mm - 1.4mm): Used for heavy descaling.
- S550 / S660 (1.7mm - 2.0mm): Used for large components requiring heavy cleaning.
