Steel shot blast media is supplied by Composition Materials in all standard sizes. Steel shot can be used in wheel blast and pressure blast systems for stripping, finishing, deburring, cleaning, and metal surface improvement. In finishing processes, it creates smooth and polished finishes.
Steel shot reinforces metal surfaces in peening applications. It is available in four grades of hardness, and is reclaimable and reusable up to hundreds of times based on blast settings and applications.
