Technical Data

Stainless steel pellets in small cylinders are obtained by cutting the stainless steel wire into pieces of the same diameter Therefore, it clearly differs from other types of abrasives for sandblasting, because the grains have the same size and the same chemical-physical characteristics

In addition, the nature of the material (drawn wire) and the production system exclude the presence of impurities and grains with inclusions, cavities, blowing, cracks, etc.
It should also be noted that, despite having a cylindrical shape, this abrasive acquires a spherical-polyhedral shape in a few processing cycles. This shape is then maintained, albeit in the face of a progressive reduction in diameter, throughout life without giving rise to crushing episodes

Wear resistance, abrasive power, the ability to generate and maintain constant a certain roughness and, if properly run, the ability to produce the "Almen effect" in the process of misalignment and graining characterize the shot in small stainless steel cylinders

Small cylinder pellets compared to cast stainless steel shot offer the following advantages:
- reduction of sandblasting time with the same degree of finishing;
- significant decrease in abrasive consumption;
- reducing the consumption of spare parts for shot blasting machines, consequently, maintenance costs and machine downtime;
- reduction of dust from the abrasive in the installation;
- silver and shiny appearance of the surface.
