Steel Shot (HC High Carbon)
Our aim is to focus on the features that make your products perfect in processes such as vibration, blasting, painting and shotpeening. This is exactly why we have a versatile.surface treatment center and product range.
For detailed information
Where is it used?
High Carbon steel Beads is a very strong abrasive for surface treatment of metallic products. Unlike low carbon steel shot, this products has a higher density and therefore provides faster and blasting.
Scope of Applications
- Before coating
- Pressure Blasting
- Vacuum Blasting
- Shot Peeing
