The application field of low carbon steel shot

Low Carbon Steel Shots (carbon content is usually less than 0.2%) are widely used in many industrial fields because of their good toughness, long service life and low wear to equipment. The following are the main application areas of low carbon steel shots and their specific application scenarios:

1. Surface cleaning

Application scenario:

Clean the surface of castings, forgings and welds of oxidation, rust, oil and burrs.

Pretreat the workpiece before painting or plating to ensure a clean surface.

Applicable industry:

Casting industry: cleaning steel casting, cast iron.

Steel structure industry: clean steel plate, profile.

Automotive manufacturing: Cleaning body, chassis, engine parts.

2. Surface strengthening (Shot Peening)

Application scenario:

The metal workpiece is strengthened by shot peening to improve its surface hardness and fatigue resistance.

It is suitable for workpiece with low surface hardness requirement.

Applicable industry:

Machinery manufacturing: such as gear, bearing, mold, etc.

Automobile manufacturing: such as springs, connecting rods, etc.

3. Deburring and chamfering

Application scenario:

Remove burrs and sharp angles from the edges of the workpiece to make it smoother and safer.

Suitable for stamping parts, casting parts and mechanical workpiece.

Applicable industry:

Automotive manufacturing: such as sheet metal parts, engine blocks.

Machining: such as precision parts.

4. Pretreatment before painting

Application scenario:

The surface of the workpiece is treated with shot blasting before painting to increase the adhesion of the coating.

Suitable for body, steel structure, mechanical equipment, etc.

Applicable industry:

Automobile manufacturing: body coating before processing.

Construction industry: pretreatment of steel structure painting.

5. Stone cutting and engraving

Application scenario:

Used for stone cutting, engraving and surface treatment.

Suitable for marble, granite and other hard stone processing.

Applicable industry:

Stone processing: such as tombstones, building decoration materials.

6. Marine and Ocean Engineering

Application scenario:

Clean hull surfaces of rust and Marine organisms.

The hull was treated with shot peening to improve its corrosion resistance.

Applicable industry:

Shipbuilding and maintenance.

7. General industrial field

Application scenario:

Cleaning and surface treatment of various common metal workpieces.

It is suitable for occasions where cleaning efficiency and surface hardness are not required.

Applicable industry:

General machinery manufacturing, hardware processing, etc.

Advantages of low carbon steel shots:

Good toughness: not easy to break, long service life.

Small equipment wear: suitable for long-term continuous operation, reduce equipment maintenance costs.

Good economy: low comprehensive cost, suitable for enterprises with limited budget.

Environmental protection: can be recycled to reduce the waste of resources.
