Shot Blasting
What Is Shot Blasting?
Shot blasting is a surface treatment technique that makes use of particulate grains propelled under high velocity.
This process is a highly effective solution for removing contamination on metal substrates or changing the coarseness or smoothness of a surface before coating. The force in which the abrasive is propelled can be generated either centrifugally, using a wheel spinning at a high RPM, or pneumatically through the medium of compressed fluid or air.
Technically, shot blasting refers specifically to a process that uses spherical particles. Not to be confused with grit blasting which uses angular or sub-angular grains.
