Stainless Steel Shot: Product Details and Applications
Established in May 2014 and located in Huangdao District, Qingdao City, Shandong Province, Qingdao Bairuitong Metal Abrasives Co., Ltd. is a comprehensive manufacturer of metal abrasives. The company’s primary products include steel shot, steel grit, stainless steel shot, cut wire shot, zinc shot, and copper shot; these products comply with the new national standard GB/T 18838.3-2008 as well as US SAE standards. Leveraging extensive industry expertise in surface cleaning and strengthening, the company consistently provides customers with cost-effective metal abrasives and surface treatment solutions.
Bairuitong stainless steel shot is an abrasive specifically designed for metal surface treatment. It is precision-manufactured from stainless steel wire through processes such as drawing, cutting, and rounding. The product features a spherical or cylindrical shape with a bright, rust-free finish. It boasts a dense microstructure free from defects like porosity or irregular shapes, ensuring a long service life. Treated workpieces exhibit a smooth, rust-free surface with a matte finish, eliminating the need for post-treatment processes such as pickling.
Common Materials:
· 304 Austenitic: Carbon ≤0.15%, Chromium 16–18%, Nickel 6–10%; excellent corrosion resistance
· 430 Ferritic: Carbon ≤0.15%, Chromium 16–18%; cost-effective and highly versatile
· 410 Martensitic: Carbon ≤0.15%, Chromium 11–13%; high hardness
Size Range: 0.2 mm – 2.5 mm; other sizes available upon request
Hardness Range: 41–59 HRC (388–509 HV)
Density: ≥7.8 g/cm³
Performance Advantages
1. Long Service Life: Wear resistance is 3–5 times that of cast stainless steel shot; free of internal voids and resistant to fracturing
2. Superior Surface Quality: Leaves treated surfaces smooth, uniform, and rust-free with a matte finish; masks surface defects such as scratches and dings
3. Eco-friendly: Produces no ferrous dust; requires no post-treatment pickling; complies with environmental regulations
4. Excellent Recyclability: Spherical shape ensures good flowability and efficient circulation within the machine, guaranteeing high-coverage processing
Application Areas:
· Cleaning: Shot blasting, deburring, and finishing of aluminum, zinc, and copper alloy die-castings as well as stainless steel castings
· Rust Removal: Shot blasting to remove rust and scale from steel plates, profiles, and structural steel components
· Strengthening: Shot peening of stainless steel parts and heat-treated components to enhance fatigue resistance
· Grinding & Polishing: Matte surface finishing for non-ferrous metal workpieces, highlighting the natural metal appearance
Applicable Industries:
Widely used in industries such as casting, mold making, automotive parts, hardware tools, pumps and valves, and machinery manufacturing.
