Shot Blasting

Alfa Shot Blasting

 Dirty, oxidized or otherwise unfinished material is undesirable for many reasons. Material that is covered in mill scale, dirt, and other debris is generally aesthetically displeasing. Applying a coating to unclean materials can cause a lack of adhesion. Sharp burrs and edges can cause lacerations. For these reasons and many more, materials often need to be cleaned prior to the finishing processes. While methods range from simply wiping a metal down with a rag to immersing materials in a bath of complex chemical combinations, one of the most effective and popular ways to clean dirty or oxidized material is by shot blasting it. 


Shot blasting works by propelling round materials known as shot media against a surface which in turn removes the contaminants of the surface and also can improve its finish. What type of shot media is used is a very important decision for the shot blasting process. The size and hardness of the shot material will dictate how much surface removal of the material being cleaned will occur. The type of material being cleaned will also play a role in the effectiveness of the shot blasting process. Typically, the shot material and size will be selected depending on the composition of the material whose surface is being shot blasted.
