Comparison of production processes for steel grit and steel shot

　　For some consumers, it may not be possible to distinguish the difference between steel shot and steel grit. If we cannot know the difference between the two, we cannot choose the product we want in the first place during the selection and use process.

　　Next, let's start with the differences between steel grit and steel shot in production technology.

　　Production process of steel shot

　　Melt high-quality steel blocks and spray them with high-pressure water to form particles. The resulting pellets are reheated to purify and homogenize, and then quenched. The quenched pellets are dried and reheated and tempered in the furnace to achieve the applicable hardness. The tempered steel pellets are sorted into different grades of products that meet SAE standards through mechanical screens for use in shot peening equipment.

　　The excellent heat treatment control process endows steel balls with the best elasticity and fatigue resistance, and steel balls with different particle sizes and hardness are suitable for different processes.

　　Production process of steel sand

　　The raw material of steel sand is not very similar to that of steel shot, it mainly consists of scrap steel from high carbon steel or alloy steel. Put the heated and quenched scrap steel into a crusher for crushing to obtain semi-finished steel sand; Then screen and classify the semi-finished steel sand to obtain the finished steel sand. The waste steel material after heating and quenching can also be put into a crusher for crushing to obtain semi-finished steel sand, which can then be screened and classified to produce finished steel sand.

　　The raw materials and production process of steel shot and steel sand are different, which also determines the difference and usage environment between them. The quality of steel shot on one side is better than that of steel sand, and its durability is also relatively good. When using, you can make choices based on the differences between the two.
