Stainless Steel Shot and Cut Wire Shot

SEPPE Stainless Steel Shot and Stainless Steel Cut Wire Shot are metallic abrasives for non-rusting surface treatment, bright finishing and contamination-sensitive blasting. Stainless steel shot is spherical and mainly used for uniform impact finishing, while stainless cut wire shot has a short cylindrical shape with stronger cutting and peening performance.

General Information

Product Positioning

• A rust-free abrasive choice for workpieces where carbon steel contamination should be avoided.

• Stainless steel shot gives a bright, clean and uniform surface, while cut wire shot provides stronger peening and cutting performance.

• Suitable for stainless steel, aluminum alloy, zinc alloy and other parts requiring a clean metallic finish.

Key Advantages

• Rust-free performance: Stainless alloy composition helps avoid rust contamination on finished workpieces.

• Bright finish: Suitable for decorative surface cleaning and bright matte finishing.

• Long service life: High density and metallic toughness support repeated recycling.

• Grade flexibility: Different stainless grades can be selected according to corrosion resistance, hardness and budget.

Typical Specification

Main Application Scenarios

Stainless Steel Products ▸ Used for stainless steel parts where carbon steel contamination and rust-back must be avoided. ▸ Provides bright matte finishing for stainless sheets, fittings, sinks and visible metal products. ▸ Suitable for clean metallic surface treatment before final inspection or assembly.

Aluminum & Zinc Alloy Parts ▸ Used for aluminum die castings, zinc alloy brackets and other non-ferrous workpieces. ▸ Helps remove burrs, oxidation and surface marks without carbon steel contamination. ▸ Suitable for matte finishing and clean appearance control on light alloy components.

Decorative Hardware ▸ Used for handles, hinges, locks, fittings, kitchenware and other visible hardware products. ▸ Stainless abrasive helps achieve a clean metallic finish without rust contamination. ▸ Suitable for decorative parts that require both appearance quality and surface consistency.

Aerospace & Precision Parts ▸ Used for precision machined parts, aerospace brackets and contamination-sensitive components. ▸ Cut wire shot can provide stronger peening action when fatigue resistance is required. ▸ Suitable for clean controlled finishing where corrosion resistance and traceability matter.

Selection Notes

• Choose stainless steel shot for uniform impact cleaning and bright finishing.

• Choose stainless cut wire shot when stronger peening or cutting action is needed.

• Choose 304 or 316 grade when corrosion resistance requirements are higher.

Production & Quality Focus

• Stainless steel shot is produced by atomization and heat treatment. Stainless cut wire shot is produced by cutting stainless wire, conditioning edges, screening and quality inspection.

Packaging & Delivery

• Common packaging includes 25 kg bags, 1000 kg jumbo bags, palletized bags and customized export packaging. Bag marks and pallet protection can be arranged according to purchase requirements.

• Palletized small bags are available for easier forklift handling, warehouse stacking and container loading.

• Loading photos, batch labels and inspection records are available to support shipment traceability.

FAQ

?Why choose stainless steel shot instead of carbon steel shot?

• Use stainless shot when the workpiece must avoid carbon steel contamination or rust-back.

?What is the difference between stainless shot and stainless cut wire shot?

• Stainless shot is spherical and gives uniform impact finishing. Cut wire shot is cylindrical and provides stronger peening and cutting action.

?Which grade is best for corrosion resistance?

• 304 and 316 grades are commonly selected when corrosion resistance is more important.

?Can it be used on aluminum alloy parts?

• Yes. Stainless shot is often used for aluminum, zinc alloy and decorative hardware where a clean metallic finish is required.

?Will it leave carbon steel contamination?

• No carbon steel abrasive is used, so it is much better for stainless and non-ferrous workpieces that need rust-free finishing.

?Can stainless cut wire shot be supplied separately?

• Yes. Stainless cut wire shot can be selected separately when stronger shot peening or cutting action is needed.
