  Steel shot is an important metal manufacturing raw material, often used to make parts and tools in the automotive, railway, aerospace, construction and other industries. In order to ensure the quality and service life of steel shot, appropriate packaging and storage methods must be adopted. Here are some suggestions for steel shot packaging and storage.

  1.Packaging

  Steel shot packaging should protect the steel shot from physical damage, chemical corrosion and contamination. Common steel shot packaging methods include:

  Container packaging: suitable for long-distance transportation, standard containers can be used, and the protection effect of steel shot is better.

  Plastic bag packaging: suitable for small batches of steel shot packaging, which can prevent steel shot from chemical corrosion and contamination.

  Wooden box packaging: suitable for long-term storage and transportation, and has better protection effect on steel shot.

  No matter which packaging method is used, the type, batch number, weight, production date and other information of the steel shot should be marked on the package for management and tracking.

  2.Save

  Steel shot should be stored in a dry, ventilated, light-proof and non-corrosive gas environment to avoid problems such as moisture, rust and chemical corrosion of steel shot. Specific suggestions are as follows:

  The storage environment temperature should be controlled between 5℃~30℃, and the relative humidity should not exceed 60%.

  Smoking, open flames, and power tools should be prohibited in storage areas to avoid problems such as fire and electrostatic discharge.

  The racks used to store steel shot should be made of iron to avoid possible chemical reactions on wooden racks.

  The area where steel shot is stored should be cleaned regularly to prevent dust and impurities from affecting the quality of the steel shot.

  In short, the packaging and storage of steel shot are important links to ensure the quality and service life of steel shot. Only under suitable packaging and storage conditions can steel shot be guaranteed not to be damaged and its quality and performance preserved for a long time.
