Stainless Steel Shot – CrNi

Stainless Steel Shot – CrNi is produced by means of a melting process and subsequently reshaped into spherical grain particles. Its austenitic microstructure guarantees its long service life. It is used where ferritic residue (rust film, coloration) needs to be avoided.

Applications:

Reusable abrasive
Sand removal
Descaling
Micro and structural blasting

Blasting systems:

Pressure blast systems
Airless blast-cleaning equipment
