The density of stainless steel shot is about 7.9g/cm3, the hardness is 400-600HV, and the specification: diameter Φ0.1mm-Φ2.5mm.
Stainless steel shot can be roughly divided into four categories: austenite 201, austenite 304, ferrite 430 and martensitic 410, and the composition of these four types of stainless steel shot is different.
Austenite 201: carbon C: ≤0.15, chromium Cr: 16.00-18.00, nickel Ni: 3.50-5.50, manganese Mn: 5.50-7.50, phosphorus P: ≤0.060, sulfur S: ≤0.030, silicon Si: ≤1.00
Austenite 304: carbon C: ≤0.07, chromium Cr: 17.00-19.00, nickel Ni: 8.00-10.00, manganese Mn: ≤2.00, phosphorus P: ≤0.035, sulfur S: ≤0.030, silicon Si: ≤1.00
Ferrite 430: carbon C: ≤0.12, chromium Cr: 16.00-18.00, nickel Ni: trace, manganese Mn: ≤1.25, phosphorus P: ≤0.035, sulfur S: ≤0.030, silicon Si: ≤0.75
Martensite 410: carbon C: ≤0.15, chromium Cr: 11.50-13.50, nickel Ni: trace, manganese Mn: ≤1.25, phosphorus P: ≤0.035, sulfur S: ≤0.030, silicon Si: ≤0.75
