What is the difference between stainless steel shot and ordinary steel shot?

　　Stainless steel shot is indeed more expensive than ordinary steel shot, but it is still a favorite metal abrasive.

　　Compared with other abrasives, one kilogram of stainless steel shot is equivalent to 17 kilograms of emery, 100 kilograms of glass beads, 3-4 kilograms of ordinary steel shots, and 3 kilograms of aluminum. pills and zinc pills.

　　Stainless steel shot is mainly used for surface treatment and decoration of non-ferrous metals. The density of stainless steel shots is twice that of aluminum shots, so the shot blasting speed can be appropriately reduced to still achieve the ideal cleaning effect. Using stainless steel shots for shot blasting will achieve a performance that highlights the true color of the metal and is smooth and matte. There is no pollution to the workpiece from beginning to end, and the service life is much longer than that of aluminum shot.

　　According to actual measurements, for every ton of aluminum alloy castings shot blasted, the consumption of shot material is about two kilograms. Under the same process conditions, when processing the same number of workpieces of the same type, the comparison between stainless steel shot and other shot materials and sand materials is as follows: consuming one kilogram of stainless steel shot is equivalent to consuming 17 kilograms of emery, which is equivalent to consuming 100 kilograms of glass beads. , equivalent to consuming 3-4 kilograms of ordinary steel shots, equivalent to consuming 3 kilograms of aluminum shots and zinc shots. Therefore, under the same processing conditions, the consumption of stainless steel pellets is the least, the resulting waste is the least, the transportation and processing costs of pellets and fertilizers are the lowest, and the amount of workpiece cleaning is also the least.

　　The initial price of stainless steel shot is indeed more expensive than that of ordinary steel shot, but from the perspective of its use and long-term development, it is the most cost-effective.
