Steel shot and grit are have wide ranges of applications in surface treatment. High density and hardness make them suitable for cleaning, polishing, and peening metal surfaces to improve their durability and fatigue resistance. Steel shot is reusable, making it economical, while grit has a rougher texture for masticating cleaning. In addition to producing little-to-no dust, both materials create a cleaner workspace. Steel shot and grit can be designed to specific sizes and shapes as per different applications.

TS Machinery supply a wide range of Steel shot and grit Abrasive Blasting Media to suit your Sand Blast Cleaning or Shot Peening requirements. The type of surface, the condition of an existing protective coating and the desired finish all need to be considered when choosing the most suitable Abrasive Media.
Here is some helpful information that can help you choose the most suitable Steel shot and grit Abrasive Media for your Abrasive Blast Cleaning or Shot Peening job.
Our steel shot and grit are used in a wide range of industry surface treatment processes. Steel shot is often used for shot peening, which is used to improve the fatigue resistance and durability of metal components in automotive and aerospace applications. It also works well for cleaning and polishing metal surfaces. The larger texture of steel grit is commonly used for more aggressive surface preparation, such as removal of rust and paint. They act as materials widely used in shot blasting machines to create smooth finishes and enhance the surface adhesion for coatings. Steel shot and grit are so adaptable that they will be based in almost all manufacturing, construction and maintenance operations.
Steel shot and grit Application:
● De-scale and de-rust metal surfaces.
● Remove paint and powder coating.
● De-burr, de-flash and remove sand from castings and moulding.
● Provide decorative finishes to stainless steel, aluminium and other non-ferrous metals.
● Etching of glass, stone and metals.
● Removal of release agents and contamination from mould.
