Steel Shot Abrasive Blasting Media, 280 Cast Steel Shot - 50 lb.

Steel shot blasting media is the most widely used abrasive for cleaning, stripping and improving a metal surface. Steel Shot is used for cleaning, descaling, surface prep and shot peening. The grade or size of steel shot will determine the ultimate finish achieved on the surface of the metal. The round ball shape of the steel shot produces a clean, smooth and polished surface through a peening action created by the acceleration of the shot. Generates a high-impact force to clean and peen heavy forgings and remove heat-treated scale on steel and other cast metals. Typical blast pressure is 100 psi.
