Steel Shot & Steel Grit in Shipbuilding

In the whole process of shipbuilding and maintenance, steel shot and Steel Grit are indispensable core metal abrasives. They are a rigid requirement in line with international shipbuilding standards.Ships sail in a high-salt, humid and highly corrosive marine environment. Steel shot and steel grit are used for shot blasting and sandblasting to pretreat the hull, remove rust, oxide scale and oil stains, and meet the Sa2.5-Sa3 cleanliness standard required for shipbuilding.

Compared with other abrasives, they have moderate hardness and high cleaning efficiency, which will not damage the hull steel plate. They can also enhance paint adhesion and reduce maintenance costs. Insiders pointed out that steel shot and steel grit are irreplaceable "surface guards" for ships, directly related to navigation safety and service life.
