What is Shot - Blast?
Shot blasting is a method of cleaning, preparing, or finishing a surface by propelling abrasive particles (such as steel shot or abrasive grit) at high speeds using a blasting machine.
The abrasive particles impact the surface, removing contaminants, surface imperfections, and other materials such as rust, paint, or scale.
Shot blasting can be used on a variety of metal surfaces.
Advantages of Shot - Blast
SURFACE PREPARATION: Shot blasting is an effective method for removing rust, paint, scale, and other surface contaminants from metal surfaces. This makes it a great option for preparing surfaces for painting or coating, as it ensures a clean and smooth surface for better adhesion.
SURFACE TEXTURING: Shot blasting can be used to create a variety of surface textures on metal, such as a matte finish or a peened surface. This can be useful for improving the strength and durability of a surface, or for adding aesthetic appeal.
COST-EFFECTIVE: Shot blasting is a cost-effective method of surface preparation and finishing, as it can be done quickly and with minimal labour compared to other methods.
RECYCLABILITY: Most of the abrasive media used in shot blasting can be recycled, making it an environmentally friendly method of surface preparation.
VERSATILITY Shot blasting can be used on a wide range of metal surfaces and can handle large and small parts as well as irregular shapes, making it versatile method of cleaning and surface preparation.
